    However the ad reaches you,
    JobShield can read it.

    Scam ads spread as chat messages, posters, links and QR codes. Pick whichever you have.

    Text

    Paste the ad from WhatsApp, Telegram or Facebook and get a result straight away.

    Image

    Upload a screenshot or poster. OCR reads the text for you, then it is analysed the same way.

    Link

    Paste a job URL. JobShield opens the page, pulls out the ad and analyses it. Works with Hiredly and MyFutureJobs.

    QR code

    Scan the QR on a poster. The link or text inside is decoded and checked before you open it.

    Some sites, such as Facebook and LinkedIn, need a login, so JobShield cannot open them. Paste the text or upload a screenshot instead.

    Under the hood

    One score, four layers of checking.

    A single check is easy to fool. JobShield combines four, so a scam that hides from one layer is still caught by another.

    AI recommendation

    Do not pay any activation or registration fee. Real employers do not ask for money before hiring.

    Look up the company on its official website and contact it through a number you find yourself.

    If you already shared personal details, report it to the police or the relevant authority.

    Red flags we look for

    Each flag found is shown in your result, so you see exactly why an ad was marked risky.

    Upfront payment
    Asks for a "registration", "training" or "activation" fee
    Unrealistic salary
    Very high pay per day or week for simple work
    Urgency language
    "Apply NOW", "Limited slots", "Immediate hiring"
    Personal info request
    Asks for IC number, bank details or passwords early
    No experience needed
    Promises a good job with no skills or experience
    Vague description
    No clear duties, company or requirements
    Suspicious link
    Shortened URLs, odd domains and redirect traps
    Fake location
    A job location that does not exist on the map
