Job Scams – Be careful when conducting a job search online

When searching many job posting websites, you will see job offers that seem too good to be true, offering high pay for little work and very few skill requirements. Although each job posted on FortBendJobs.com is reviewed by a staff member and known scams are removed, a new scam may slip through. If you are certain a particular job listing on FortBendJobs.com is a scam, please let us know and we will remove it.

Protect yourself from job scams. No legitimate employer will require you to pay them for the opportunity to work for them. Most importantly, do not give out your social security number or driver’s license information until you have verified a legitimate job opportunity, and don’t provide your bank account information unless a legitimate employer has hired you and needs it to direct deposit your paycheck.
