Hey everyone,

I’ve been browsing job offers lately (mostly online/remote stuff), and honestly… a lot of them feel sketchy.

Some ask you to go through “training” before you even know if the job is real, others just send affiliate links, invite you to Telegram groups, or redirect you to random platforms that don’t look trustworthy at all.

At this point, I’m not sure what’s actually worth my time and what’s just a scam or a waste of effort.

For those of you who’ve managed to find legit opportunities:

- What kind of jobs did you end up getting?

- How did you filter out the scams?

- Are there any clear red flags I should watch for?

Also, if anyone knows (or has) a list of the most common job scam types that keep showing up, I’d really appreciate it. I feel like recognizing patterns would make it way easier to avoid wasting time on the same traps over and over.

And if there isn’t really a list like that, feel free to share your personal experiences here. I’m trying to gather info and patterns from different subreddits to build a kind of compilation and get a better overall perspective on this.

Would really appreciate any advice or experiences

Hola a todos,

He estado revisando ofertas de trabajo últimamente (sobre todo online/remoto) y la verdad… muchas se sienten bastante sospechosas.

Algunas te piden hacer un “training” antes siquiera de saber si el trabajo es real, otras solo te mandan links de afiliados, te invitan a grupos de Telegram o te redirigen a plataformas random que no se ven nada confiables.

En este punto, ya no sé bien qué vale la pena y qué es simplemente una estafa o una pérdida de tiempo.

Para los que sí han encontrado oportunidades legítimas:

- ¿Qué tipo de trabajo consiguieron?

- ¿Cómo filtraron las estafas?

- ¿Qué señales de alerta recomiendan tener en cuenta?

También, si alguien conoce (o tiene) una lista de los tipos de estafas más comunes que suelen aparecer, se lo agradecería mucho. Siento que reconocer patrones ayudaría bastante a no caer en lo mismo una y otra vez.

Y si no existe como tal una lista, igual pueden dejar sus experiencias personales en los comentarios. Estoy preguntando en varios subreddits sobre este tema para recopilar información, identificar patrones y armar una especie de compilación que dé una mejor perspectiva general.

Se agradece mucho cualquier consejo o experiencia
