Fake Job Notifications Se Kaise Bachein: Verification Checklist
Recruitment season me fake notifications ka flood aata hai—WhatsApp forwards, Facebook posts, Telegram channels aur even lookalike websites par “new vacancy” ke naam par misinformation spread hoti hai. In fakes ka common pattern hota hai: urgent tone, limited seats, quick payment, ya unofficial email/phone par documents mangna. Candidates excitement me share kar dete hain, ya scam fees pay kar dete hain. Is post me aapko ek simple verification method milega: official source confirm, PDF metadata/format sanity check, fee payment authenticity, aur contact details validation. Aap ye checklist har new vacancy post par apply kar sakte ho.
1. Official Source Verification
- Recruiting body ki official website/domain se match karein
- Official notice board/press release section me same notification exist karta hai ya nahi
- Sponsored ads ya shortened links se direct apply avoid karein
2. Fake PDF Red Flags
- Poor formatting, wrong logo, spelling mistakes, inconsistent dates
- Official email domain mismatch (free email IDs suspicious ho sakte hain)
- Fee payment personal UPI/QR to individual name
3. Safe Action Plan
Doubt ho to apply mat karein; first official portal par cross-check karein. Friends/groups me forward karne se pehle official link share karein, screenshot-based forwards avoid karein.
Agar already payment/data share ho gaya ho, to immediate steps lein: bank/UPI alerts monitor, passwords change, and official complaint channels use karein.
