\n \"JobVerify\"\n

\n\n

\n Check whether a recruiter or job offer is real — before you reply.\n

\n\n

\n \"MCP\n \"No\n \"Free\n \"Works\n \"No\n

\n\n---\n\nYou get a message: *\"We loved your profile and want to offer you a great remote job.\"*\nIt sounds real. The company has a logo. The recruiter has a photo. But something feels off.\n\n**JobVerify helps you find out — in seconds — whether it's genuine or a scam.**\n\nYou paste the recruiter's message (or a company name, a link, or an email) and ask your AI assistant.\nJobVerify quietly runs the same background checks a professional investigator would, then gives you a\nplain-English answer: **looks legit**, **be careful**, or **this is almost certainly a scam** — and *why*.\n\n---\n\n## ❌ Without JobVerify\n\nFake recruiter and job-offer scams are everywhere, and they're convincing. On your own, you're left guessing:\n\n- ❌ Is this company real, or a name someone invented last week?\n- ❌ Is this \"recruiter\" a real person, or a stolen photo and a throwaway account?\n- ❌ Is that application link safe, or a look-alike site built to steal your data?\n- ❌ Why are they asking me to pay for equipment, or move the chat to WhatsApp/Telegram?\n\nBy the time you notice, your time, your personal details — or your money — may already be gone.\n\n## ✅ With JobVerify\n\nJobVerify cross-checks the offer against dozens of **free, public information sources** and combines the\nclues into one clear verdict:\n\n- ✅ Tells you if the company is a **registered, real business** — or nowhere to be found\n- ✅ Spots **classic scam scripts** (upfront fees, fake \"task\" jobs, crypto, \"let's move off-platform\")\n- ✅ Flags **suspicious links, look-alike domains, and brand-new websites** made to look official\n- ✅ Checks whether the **email, phone, and photos** actually belong to who they claim\n- ✅ Explains its reasoning in **everyday language**, so you can decide with confidence\n\nNo account, no sign-up, and none of your data is sold or stored. It simply helps you not get fooled.\n\n---\n\n## 🕵️ How it works\n\nYou don't need to learn anything technical. It's a three-step conversation:\n\n1. **Paste it.** Drop the recruiter's message, a company name, a job link, or an email into your AI chat.\n2. **It investigates.** JobVerify pulls out every detail — the company, links, email, phone, wallet\n addresses — and quietly checks each one against public records, scam databases, and website history.\n3. **You get a verdict.** A short, honest summary: how risky it looks, which signals are reassuring,\n which are red flags, and what to do next.\n\n> [!NOTE]\n> JobVerify **never logs into or scrapes LinkedIn**. It only looks at information that is already\n> public, and reads website history through the **Internet Archive** — the safe, legal way to check\n> how long a profile or company page has *really* existed (scammers rely on brand-new throwaway accounts).\n\n---\n\n## 🔎 What it looks at\n\nThink of it as a checklist a careful friend — who happens to be a fraud investigator — would run for you:\n\n| Area | The question it answers |\n|------|-------------------------|\n| **The message** | Does this match known scam playbooks (advance fees, fake tasks, crypto, urgency)? |\n| **The company** | Is it a real, registered business? Any recent scam reports? Is the office address real? |\n| **The person** | Is the email real and deliverable? Is the phone valid? Are the photos/usernames reused elsewhere? |\n| **The links** | Is the domain brand-new? A look-alike of a real brand? On any phishing/malware blocklist? |\n| **The money** | Is the crypto wallet they gave you already flagged in scam databases? |\n| **The history** | How long has this profile or website *actually* been online? |\n\n---\n\n## 💬 Example\n\nAsk your assistant something as simple as:\n\n```txt\nIs this recruiter legit?\n\n\"Hi! I'm a talent partner at Example Corp. We loved your profile and\nwant to offer you a remote role at $45/hr. To get started, please purchase\n$200 of onboarding equipment through this link — you'll be fully reimbursed\non day one. Let's continue on Telegram: @examplecorp_hr\"\n```\n\nJobVerify will pick out **Example Corp**, the **link**, and the **Telegram hand-off**, check each\none, and reply with something like: *\"⚠️ High risk — the company has no public registration, the link\nwas registered 4 days ago, and asking you to pay upfront and move to Telegram are textbook scam signals.\"*\n\n---\n\n## 🚀 Getting started\n\n**No cloning. No virtualenv. No manual install.** JobVerify runs **straight from GitHub** — you only\npaste a few lines into your AI assistant's config, and it fetches and launches itself on demand.\n\n> [!NOTE]\n> The only thing you need once is [**uv**](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) — a tiny, free helper that runs\n> the tool for you:\n> - **macOS / Linux:** `curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh`\n> - **Windows:** `powershell -c \"irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex\"`\n\n### Claude Desktop\n\nAdd this to your `claude_desktop_config.json`, then restart Claude:\n\n```json\n{\n \"mcpServers\": {\n \"jobverify\": {\n \"command\": \"uvx\",\n \"args\": [\"jobverify-mcp\"]\n }\n }\n}\n```\n\n### Claude Code\n\nOne line in your terminal:\n\n```bash\nclaude mcp add jobverify -- uvx jobverify-mcp\n```\n\n> The first run takes a few seconds while it downloads the tool; after that it's instant.\n\n### Use it\n\nPaste a suspicious message and ask *\"Is this offer legit?\"* — or run the built-in **`analyze`** prompt.\nThat's it.\n\n---\n\n## 🔐 Privacy & honesty\n\n- **Your data stays yours.** No sign-up, no tracking, nothing you paste is stored or sold.\n- **No API keys or costs.** Every source is free and open — public business registries, DNS records,\n scam blocklists, the Internet Archive, and more.\n- **Signals, not certainty.** JobVerify gives you strong decision support, not a courtroom verdict.\n Treat the result as informed guidance about a *message* — never as a final judgment about a real person.\n\n---\n\n
\nFor the curious: the full toolbox\n\n
\n\nUnder the hood, the AI assistant orchestrates these individual checks (all free, no keys):\n\n| Tool | What it checks |\n|------|----------------|\n| `extract_entities` | Pulls emails, links, phones, wallets, and profile URLs out of a message |\n| `check_scam_patterns` | Matches text against known scam tactics |\n| `check_email` / `check_email_footprint` | Email deliverability + linked social accounts |\n| `check_domain` / `check_domain_auth` | Domain age, registrar, and whether it can be spoofed |\n| `check_typosquatting` / `find_lookalike_domains` | Look-alike / imposter domains |\n| `check_url` / `check_ip` | Phishing & malware blocklists |\n| `check_certificate_transparency` | A site's certificate & subdomain history |\n| `parse_email_headers` | Origin, SPF/DKIM/DMARC, and mismatches in raw email headers |\n| `check_phone` | Phone number validity and region |\n| `check_crypto_address` | Known-scam crypto wallet databases |\n| `verify_company` / `search_company_news` / `verify_address` | Business registration, press, and real address |\n| `check_github_org` / `check_username` | Whether an org/username really exists and how old it is |\n| `check_wayback` / `fetch_archived_page` | Internet Archive history & content (the legal way to read a page) |\n\nThere's also a single **`analyze`** prompt that runs the whole extract → check → verdict flow for you.\n\n
