🛡️ DOCUMENTED SCAM TYPOLOGIES

SniffCheck's AI is trained on a documented catalogue of real-world job scam patterns. Every red flag traces back to a verified scam type:

• Advance-fee job scams asking you to pay before starting work
• Fake recruiter scams pretending to represent real companies
• Predatory language designed to create false urgency
• Unrealistic salary promises and too-good-to-be-true offers
• MLM and pyramid schemes hiding behind job titles
• Fake company names and suspicious contact details
• Requests for personal data, ID copies, or banking info upfront
• Vague job descriptions hiding commission-only work
• Misleading job titles that don't match the actual role
• Flat-rate pay claims (£500/day, £15k/month) signalling fake offers
• Off-platform red flags (moving you to WhatsApp or Telegram)

🔎 SEARCHABLE SCAM DATABASE

Browse SniffCheck's full scam database to study how each fraud type works, what red flags define it, and how to spot the same pattern wearing a different disguise. Search by scam type or keyword.

📊 DETAILED RISK SCORING

Every scan produces a scam risk score from 1 (safe) to 10 (high risk), powered by Google Gemini AI. Each score comes with a plain-English breakdown of which red flags were detected and why the ad is suspicious. No jargon — just clear guidance.
