Can’t even browse for jobs on Indeed, without getting ‘Scam Likely’. 🙄
I only apply to employers sites directly after browsing who’s hiring on Indeed & lately I get these scam texts, claiming to be someone from Indeed, with a bunch of other victims on the text.😵‍💫
Anyone else get these texts after searching for jobs on Indeed or any other job site?

Oh man! That seems scam in so many ways although there are so many desperate and naive people out there that would fall for this. I know many of the Gen Zers will fall for this as they only want to work remotely and put in very little time but get paid for working 40+ hours a week.

Yeah, I'm getting these as well. I always feel bad for all the other people in the chat, none of us asked to be here. 😆

I get these daily. They’re usually sent from domains registered in Nigeria, India, and the Philippines, so that’s an instant scam indicator

Ikr! But my thing is, if I’m not applying to jobs directly through Indeed, how are these scammers getting applicants info?! Is Indeed selling our data or is their data hacked. Cause if I see a job I like on Indeed, I pull up the employer website to make sure it’s legit and apply on the employer website directly.

The true crime is being in a group text with everyone else. Scams are everywhere unfortunately and I know many of them seem obvious, but you always have to be on the lookout.

And they text it to me at 6:13AM EST so I’m assuming their in another country where the time zones are different cause what ‘employer’ is texting that damn early on group text about a job lead.😑

I can leap tall buildings with a single bound too.
