Victim is “hired” quickly and sent a fake check to buy equipment.

Why flagged: Email used, Website used

Company: Remote Hiring Offer

Email: hiring@remote-job-fast-example.com

URL: remote-job-fast-example.com

Source: Editor


How it works

Scammers offer a remote job with little screening, send a check, and instruct the victim to buy equipment from a preferred vendor. The check later bounces.

Warning signs

Fast hire, interview by text only, fake check, request to forward money, unofficial email domain.

How to avoid it

Research the employer, verify the domain, and never deposit checks to purchase equipment for a new employer.

How it works

Victims receive a text message claiming a package is being held. The message includes a link to a fake website requesting personal information and payment details.

Warning signs

Unexpected text, urgent tone, odd URL, payment request for redelivery, spelling issues.

How to avoid it

Do not click the link. Go directly to the official carrier website. Verify tracking numbers independently.

Why flagged: Phone used

Company: Fake Bank Fraud Dept
