Beware of dangerous dark bytes!

Last Updated December 11, 2024

The reality of dark bytes and its dangers

 At first glance, a dark part-time job looks like a high-income and simple part-time job, and in fact, it does not clarify the content of the job, and is involved in illegal acts and crimes such as involvement in robbery cases, special fraud children, etc. Refers to a malicious employment form. You need to be careful not to get involved in these part-time jobs.
 In recent dark bytes, at first glance, it often looks like a normal job offer, and there are reports that rewards were not high.

In order not to get caught in the dark bytes

1. Use a reliable job site

Look for a job through a public agency or a reliable job site. You need to be careful when recruiting on unreliable sites and SNS.

2. Beware of job openings that emphasize high income and simple work

Watch out for jobs that emphasize attractive conditions such as "high income" and "simple job" and do not apply until you check the details.

3. Do not provide personal information easily

If you are asked for personal information at the time of application, check how that information will be used and do not provide it unless you are a trusted partner.

4. Consult with others

If you find a suspicious job or feel uneasy, consult a specialized agency such as your family, friends, or police. By listening to the opinions of third parties, you can make a calm decision.

5. Pay attention to suspicious contact methods and interview locations

You need to be careful if you do not specify a formal interview location only by email, SNS, or via highly anonymous app. Reliable companies usually have formal offices and interview locations.

6. Confirm the contents of the contract

Before you start working, make sure you check the contract details. Avoid starting a job with only ambiguous contracts or oral promises.

7. Watch out for unnatural high income

Special attention should be paid to job openings claiming that they will be rewarded in a short period of time. Let's calmly judge whether it's a realistic reward setting.

8. Examine word of mouth and reputation

It is also effective to examine the word of mouth and reputation of companies and job openings on the Internet. Referring to other people's experiences will help you identify suspicious job offers.

Keep these points and try to work safely and soundly.
If you find a suspicious job or feel uneasy, consult the police immediately.
