How to spot a fake job or scholarship advert
31 Oct 2026 · Hareeeng Editorial
Red flags
- You are asked to pay to apply, for "processing", a "visa", training or uniform.
- The offer arrives before you applied, or the interview happens only in chat.
- The email comes from a free address that does not match the organisation's name.
- The salary or benefits look too good to be true, or details are vague.
How to check
- Find the organisation's official website yourself and look for the same advert there.
- Phone the main number listed on the official site, not the one in the message.
- Search the organisation's name together with the word "scam".
Every listing on Hareeeng links to its official source. If you spot something suspicious, report it.
