Anatomy of a Scam Job Offer
summary
Scam recruitments target unskilled applicants, use mismatched domains like companynamecareers.com, paste irrelevant job descriptions, and include a shopping list asking recipients to buy equipment and reimburse with items such as MacBook Pro, wireless laser printer, GitHub licenses and Adobe Dreamweaver. Practical countermeasures include not giving real identity, reporting to law enforcement, contacting the impersonated company so it forwards to legal, checking WHOIS and using the host’s abuse form — one domain is suspended the domain within hours.
