3 simple steps to check any job post

Our AI analyzes the job post for hundreds of scam signals in under 2 seconds and gives you a clear verdict.

1

Copy the job post

Copy the full text of any job ad you received — from WhatsApp, email, Naukri, LinkedIn, or any other source. Include all details: salary, company, contact number, requirements.

2

Paste and analyze

Paste the text into our analyzer box on the home page and click "Analyze Job Post". Our Random Forest ML model instantly processes the text using TF-IDF analysis.

3

Read your risk report

You get a risk score from 0–100, a clear verdict (Safe / Suspicious / High Risk), a detailed summary, and a list of specific red flags detected in the post.

4

Stay safe or report

If the job is flagged as fake, report it to cybercrime.gov.in. Share the result with friends and family to protect them too.

⚠️

Job fraud is rising fast in India. According to cybercrime reports, over 10 lakh Indians lose money to fake job scams every year. Scammers impersonate Infosys, TCS, government departments, and even RBI. Never pay any registration fee for a job. If you received a suspicious job post, check it here before responding.

Common fake job scams in India (2025)

Our tool detects all of these automatically — and more. Learn to recognize them manually too.

WhatsApp Job Scams

Scammers send unsolicited job offers via WhatsApp or Telegram, often posing as HR managers of well-known companies. They ask for a security deposit or registration fee to "secure the position." Real companies never ask for money via WhatsApp.

Fake IT Company Jobs (TCS, Infosys, Wipro)

Fraudsters create job posts using logos and names of Infosys, TCS, Wipro, and HCL. The offer letter looks official but the email is from a Gmail or Yahoo account. Verify by checking the official company careers page directly.

Work From Home Data Entry Scams

These posts promise ₹500–800 per hour for simple data entry work with no experience needed. They require a paid training kit or software purchase upfront. Legitimate work-from-home jobs never ask you to pay first.

Fake Government Job Offers

Scammers post fake UPSC, SSC, Railways, and State PSC offers, sometimes with official-looking documents. They charge for application processing or interview scheduling. All genuine government jobs are free to apply for at official portals.

Unrealistic Salary Jobs

Posts offering ₹50,000+ per week, ₹1 lakh/month for no experience, or "earn while you sleep" schemes are almost always fake. Any salary that seems too good to be true for the role described is a major red flag our tool detects.

Personal Data Harvesting

Some fake job posts are designed not to steal money but to collect your Aadhaar number, PAN, bank details, or passport scan "for the application." This data is then sold or used for identity fraud. Never share sensitive documents without verification.

Tips to avoid job fraud in India

Use these guidelines alongside our tool to protect yourself from scammers.

01

Never pay to get a job

No legitimate employer ever asks for a registration fee, security deposit, training fee, or any other upfront payment. If someone asks for money to offer you a job, it is a scam — 100% of the time.

02

Verify the company independently

Search the company on Google. Visit their official website directly (not via a link in the job post). Check if the careers page lists the same position. Call their official number to verify the recruiter's identity.

03

Check the email domain

Legitimate companies use their own domain for emails (e.g., @infosys.com, @tcs.com). If the recruiter's email is a Gmail, Yahoo, or Outlook account, be very cautious and verify further before sharing any information.

04

Be skeptical of WhatsApp-only recruiters

Professional recruiters use email, LinkedIn, or official company portals as primary channels. A recruiter who only communicates via WhatsApp and avoids official channels is a major warning sign.

05

Research the salary offered

Look up the average salary for the role on Glassdoor, Naukri, or AmbitionBox. If the offer is significantly higher than the market rate for your experience level, it is likely designed to lure you in.

06

Report scams to cybercrime.gov.in

If you identify a fake job post or have already been scammed, file a complaint at cybercrime.gov.in or call the National Cybercrime Helpline at 1930. Reporting helps protect others.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about how Fake Job Detector works.

Is Fake Job Detector really free? +
Yes, completely free. You do not need to register, create an account, or pay anything. We sustain the tool through non-intrusive advertisements. We will never charge you for the core job-checking functionality.
Does the tool store the job text I paste? +
No. Your job post text is sent to our server only to run the ML model and is not saved, logged, or stored in any database. Once the analysis is complete, the text is discarded. We take your privacy seriously.
How accurate is the ML model? +
Our Random Forest classifier achieves 99.67% accuracy on the test dataset, with an F1 score of 0.7789 for the fake-job class. It was trained on 96,674 labeled job postings combining the EMSCAD global dataset and Naukri India dataset. However, no ML model is perfect — always use your own judgment alongside the tool's result.
What languages does it work with? +
The model was trained primarily on English-language job posts. It works best with English text. Job posts in Hinglish (mixed Hindi-English) may also work reasonably well. Pure Hindi or regional language posts may not be as accurate.
How do I install the Chrome extension? +
Visit the Chrome Web Store page and click "Add to Chrome". The extension will install automatically and start detecting fake jobs on Naukri, LinkedIn, and Indeed as you browse — no setup needed.
What should I do if the tool says a job is fake? +
Do not apply, do not pay anything, and do not share personal documents. Report the job post to cybercrime.gov.in or call 1930. You can also report it directly on the platform where you saw it (Naukri, LinkedIn, etc.). Share the result with others who may have received the same post.
Can I use it for international job posts? +
Yes. While the tool is optimized for India, the EMSCAD dataset includes global job postings, so it can detect fake international jobs too. The India-specific rule layer (registration fees, fake IT company names, etc.) will apply only to relevant patterns.
