Job scams are horrendous and omnipresent on almost every single job site on the web. That is precisely why I feel so strongly about what we are doing at LinkUp.com, where we have listings only from company websites themselves. The jobs on LinkUp are indexed ONLY from the employer's website directly. There are no fake listings, no scam jobs, no spam, and no risk of identity theft, etc. The jobs are always current, often unadvertised, and never fake. It is simply the best jobs site on the web today. Joel – this is too funny and thanks for highlighting one of, if not the biggest problem in the job board industry.
