Show HN: LinkedIn Job Scam Detector – Catch fake recruiters and job scams
Taken from David Dodda's blog post yesterday:
"Verify everything. Real LinkedIn profile doesn't mean real person. Real company doesn't mean real opportunity."
His story (How I almost got hacked by a job interview - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45591707) shows how easy it is to fall for professional-looking LinkedIn scams.
We built a tool that checks the job posting, the recruiter profile and the company's company pages for red flags. all in one straightforward report.
try it here: https://scamai.com/detect/jobs

this is soo cool!
would love to know more about the technical details behind this tool!
I am working on something that needs LinkedIn integration and would love to know how you did that, thanks!
maybe you could sell it to microsoft, don't they own l/i ?
