Treat guaranteed-job payment requests with caution and independently verify the employer, payment reason and official process before sending money.
Job fraud & safety
A genuine hiring process should be transparent about the role, company and next steps. Protect your personal and financial information, verify unusual requests and report opportunities that appear misleading or suspicious.
Pause and verify
Be cautious when someone demands money in exchange for a guaranteed Job, interview, offer letter, security deposit, training kit, device release or similar promise. Some legitimate employers may have lawful processes, but unexpected payment requests—especially to personal accounts or wallets—should be independently verified before you act.
Checklist
Check whether the company name, website, email domain, office information and role description are consistent.
Search the company's official website or public business presence independently rather than relying only on links sent through chat.
Be cautious when an alleged recruiter refuses to identify the company or provides information that conflicts with the public job page.
Pause and verify
Warning signs may include:
Interviews
Candidates should not be asked for unrelated sensitive documents before a legitimate need is established.
Your information
Do not share passwords, OTPs, complete banking credentials, card PINs or other authentication secrets with recruiters or support. Share identity or employment documents only when there is a legitimate and understood reason. ProJob public pages should not require candidates to expose exact residential addresses to employers.
Read the Privacy PolicyBefore you pay
A suspicious recruiter may describe a payment as registration, refundable security, document processing, device courier, training, background verification or guaranteed placement.
Verify the company and the reason independently before paying.
Avoid sending money to an individual merely because they use a company logo or job title in a message.
Reporting
When reporting a Job, include the public Job URL or ID, the reason for concern and any non-sensitive evidence that helps explain the issue.
Do not upload passwords, bank credentials or unnecessary identity documents.

Urgent situations
If you believe you are facing immediate danger, financial theft, identity misuse or other serious harm, consider contacting the appropriate local authority, financial institution or professional adviser for your situation.
