VerifyJobs.org exists to give every job seeker — regardless of where they live or how tech-savvy they are — a fast, free way to check if a job offer is real before they invest time, money, or personal information.
Job fraud is not a small problem. Millions of people lose billions of dollars each year to fake employers who exploit desperation. The scams are sophisticated, the platforms are everywhere — WhatsApp, Telegram, email, social media — and the victims are often people who can least afford to lose what they lose. We built VerifyJobs to close that gap.
Learn how the hybrid engine works (50+ rules + AI), or go straight to the free job scam checker.
The idea came from watching people in our own communities fall for job scams — educated people, careful people, people who checked multiple times but had no reliable tool to verify what they were looking at.
Most existing tools require sign-ups, charge fees, or only work for specific platforms. We wanted something anyone could open on their phone, paste a WhatsApp message into, and get a clear answer in seconds. No account. No payment. No friction.
VerifyJobs is especially focused on job seekers in Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, India, the Philippines, and other markets where WhatsApp job scams, advance-fee fraud, and fake remote / work-from-home schemes are rampant — but the tool works for anyone, anywhere.
VerifyJobs is free for everyone, but our detection engine is specifically trained on scam patterns most common in these markets:
Start with our practical guides: 15 warning signs of a job scam and how to verify a job offer in 7 steps.
Scam detection should not cost money. VerifyJobs is and will remain free to use for everyone. Use the checker or the Chrome extension with no account.
We don't store the text you paste or the files you upload. Your data stays yours. See our privacy policy.
Our scam patterns cover local fraud methods, not just Western ones — built for Africa, Asia, and beyond.
Scam patterns evolve. Our rule engine and ML model are updated as new tactics emerge. Transparency: how it works and analytics.
VerifyJobs is not a government agency, a law enforcement body, or a legal service. Our verdicts are based on pattern matching and should be used as a guide, not as a definitive legal determination. We are also not affiliated with any job board, recruiter, or employer.
If you believe you have been the victim of a job scam, please report it using the country links on our Report a scam page — including EFCC in Nigeria, FTC in the USA, Action Fraud in the UK — and, if money was stolen, contact your bank immediately.
