Red Flags of a Fake Job Offer Abroad

1) Asking for Money Upfront Without Any Process

If someone demands payment before sharing job details, visa procedures, or employer information — it’s likely a scam.

✅ Genuine employers never ask you to pay to get hired

2) Fake or Poorly Written Offer Letters

Scammers often send “offer letters” full of grammatical mistakes, generic company names, or without proper contact details.

✅ Always verify the company’s website and cross-check job offers directly with the employer.

3) Unrealistic Salary or Job Description

If you’re offered a basic job like “kitchen helper” or “cleaner” with a salary of ₹2–4 lakh/month in countries like UAE or Canada — it’s most likely a fraud.

✅ Real international salaries are reasonable and based on job type, skill, and experience.

4) Urgent Decisions and Pressure Tactics

Scammers create fake urgency: “Apply in 24 hours or lose the opportunity.”
This is a tactic to avoid your research.

✅ A real company gives you time to prepare, apply, and decide.

5) No Interview or Verification Process

If you are “selected” without an interview or skill check — it’s a big red flag.

✅ Every genuine employer interviews candidates or reviews their background before sending any job confirmation.
