Fake Jobs Put Job Seekers at Risk of Identity Theft
Fraud investigator Jay Jones, known online as “The Profiler,” tells Bloomberg This Weekend that AI is helping scammers create increasingly convincing fake recruiters and job listings that can lead victims to surrender money and sensitive personal information. Speaking with hosts David Gura and Christina Ruffini, Jones says he has helped remove more than 58,000 fraudulent job listings and advises applicants to verify company websites, domain histories and where application links lead before sharing personal information.
