Detect fake job postings and recruitment scams before they damage your brand

Continuously monitor for fake job listings, fraudulent recruiter profiles, fake offer letters, and phishing campaigns that abuse your employer brand to target job seekers.

The problem

Fake job postings and recruitment scams using your name harvest personal data, collect fraudulent payments, and erode candidate trust. Talent acquisition and security teams rarely have shared visibility into this surface.

Why it matters now

Generative AI lets attackers spin up convincing fake recruiter profiles, branded career pages, and offer letters in minutes — and platforms are slow to act without structured evidence.

How Verasity™ solves it

Job board and social coverage

Detect suspicious job postings and recruiter profiles across major job boards and professional networks.

Fake career page detection

Identify cloned or spoofed careers pages used to lure candidates into phishing or fee scams.

Recruiter impersonation alerts

Surface accounts impersonating your recruiters or HR leaders across LinkedIn, X, and messaging platforms.

Evidence and reporting workflows

Package screenshots, URLs, and account metadata for platform reporting and law-enforcement referral.

Step-by-step workflow

  1. 1

    Register your employer brand, recruiter handles, and known career domains.

  2. 2

    Continuously monitor job boards, social platforms, and messaging apps for branded misuse.

  3. 3

    Risk-score listings using language, payment-request, and infrastructure signals.

  4. 4

    Capture evidence and support reporting to platforms, registrars, and abuse desks.

  5. 5

    Track takedown disposition and brief HR, talent, and security stakeholders.

Example scam

A fake 'Talent Acquisition' profile on a job board posts roles using your logo, then asks candidates to pay for onboarding equipment. Verasity™ detects the listing within hours, captures evidence, and pre-fills a platform takedown request.
