Beware of Job Scams

[rebellious3]

CraigsList Jobs

While CraigsList is an excellent clearinghouse for many things, it's become a swamp for job scams. Avoid listings that hide the employer's identity, include unrealistically high salaries, contain many misspellings and grammatical mistakes, require you pass a security clearance before applying, or ask you submit financial info (including bank account data, social-security number, etc.). Watch out for identical ads placed in numerous cities, as well. In how many cities can one employer use a personal assistant or nanny?
