Fraud Prevention

Common scam patterns we see in local hiring and how JobNearby works to reduce them.

Common scam patterns

  • Job that promises unrealistic salary for very little work.
  • Employer who asks for money for training, registration or a kit.
  • Interview held only over chat with no real business address.
  • Pressure to accept immediately without a real conversation.
  • Requests to install unknown apps or share OTPs during "onboarding".

What JobNearby does

  • Employers go through verification before jobs are published.
  • Listings that break our rules are removed and the employer can be blocked.
  • Job seekers can report any listing at any time.
