Fraudulent job validation tool

Paste a job post and get an instant risk view — the same analysis that powers Ruvia’s Trust API. Great for candidates, trust teams, and product leaders evaluating our API.

What is the Fraudulent Job Checker?

A simple, manual checker that evaluates job posts for fraud indicators. It’s designed for people who want to validate a job safely and for teams who want to see our Trust API in action before integrating. (Also commonly called a “job scam checker”.)

  • For candidates: sanity-check a job before you apply.
  • For platforms: demo the underlying API without writing code.
  • For trust/review teams: triage suspicious posts faster with explainable signals.

What it checks

  • Known fraud patterns in content and structure.
  • Phishing indicators in links, redirects, and URL shorteners.
  • Employer credibility: domain age, WHOIS hints, brand mismatch.
  • Compensation/benefit anomalies by region and seniority.
  • Contact method red flags (personal emails, messaging apps, etc.).

Developers can access all signals and reason codes via Trust API → Job fraud verification.

How it works

  • Paste a job description (interactive form coming soon).
  • The checker analyses text, links, and employer signals using the same engine as our API.
  • You get a risk summary with clear, human-readable reasons.
  • Decide to approve, review, or block — or use the API to automate that flow.

Who should use this?

  • Candidates — avoid fraudulent/scam listings and apply with confidence.
  • Job boards, ATS, marketplaces — preview our fraud checks before integrating.
  • Browser extensions & career tools — validate jobs where users browse.
  • Trust & safety teams — speed up moderation with explainable signals.

Benefits

  • Human-friendly explanations — understand the “why,” not just a score.
  • Real API under the hood — what you see here mirrors production results.
  • Pre-moderation ready — stop bad posts before they go live.
  • Fewer support tickets — reduce user harm and restore trust.

Privacy & security

  • Encryption in transit and at rest.
  • Data minimisation; configurable retention for enterprise.
  • GDPR/CCPA alignment. EU/US data residency options available.
