Cybersecurity experts at NordVPN said criminals are targeting job seekers.
Fake job posts or job recruitment emails, posing as trustworthy people or organizations, can trick you into giving scammers personal details, such as passwords or financial information.
Links and downloads you click could contain malware. Check to see if the email is legitimate and from a reputable company by hovering over the senders address, and then research that email address.
Scan the message or job postings on websites for poor spelling and grammar.
Before arranging any follow-up calls, confirm that the company and the job really exists by researching online.
