The Profiler — The Cases
What it is
A one-person investigation unit that documents fake job listings, cloned company pages and hijacked LinkedIn profiles, then gets them taken down. The case files show exactly how each scam was built: duplicate listings posted under a real employer's name and logo across several states, applicants routed off LinkedIn to a lookalike careers site, and a resume drop at a domain with no connection to the company. The site claims 58,559 fake jobs and 7,000+ fake profiles removed from LinkedIn.
Why I recommend it
Read two or three cases before your next application round. Once you have seen the pattern — an unfamiliar careers domain, a logo lifted from the real employer, the same listing in a dozen states — you will spot it in seconds. Two honest limits: the takedown counts are the author's own figures with no independent audit, and the author is anonymous, so treat the method as the useful part rather than the totals.
