The Job Scam Report Podcast
Podcast Description
The podcast, “The Job Scam Report,” can only be found here on my Substack and YouTube.
I created "The Job Scam Report" on Substack in May 2024. I started the podcast shortly after realizing its potential to reach many more job seekers trying to conduct a job search without being lured by bad actors. Job scams are a pandemic in the marketplace. The sooner the signs of a scam are recognized, the quicker one must disengage from communication with them.
It should take just one sign to stop, block, and report them. Inform your network and report if you have engaged with a link, PDF, or downloaded a communication from them.

Kevin Turner, a well-known Brand Strategist and LinkedIn expert, offered a post-show perspective on job scams on LinkedIn. He says a stolen LinkedIn profile could be leveraged on other platforms, such as Facebook and Fiverr, to sell fake services.
He says bad actors will use the credibility through endorsements and references on LinkedIn to build false trust for scams on other platforms.
Kevin mentions an article he wrote on LinkedIn about ‘fake recruiters on LinkedIn sending, DMS messaging to individuals on LinkedIn and saying, Hey, I’ve got an incredible opportunity.
You look like a perfect match. And when somebody would look at it, they’d go and they’d say, just click on the link and look at it, read it, and if you’re interested. Get back into the DMs.
What they did when they clicked that link was relinquish through that process.”
Enjoy the show.
