In a Fake Job Scam, the scammer will approach potential victims by picking up profiles uploaded on job portals. The compensation packages offered will be well above market-rates and multiple rounds of fake interviews may be conducted. However, scammers often avoid face-to-face contact, so the interview is usually conducted via text message. After sending a fake offer letter, they will ask for 'refundable fees' to be paid for various reasons, such as paperwork or for buying office equipment.
