With so many scammers and cons out there, is there a website to check if a recruiter is legit?

If not I think we as the ESL community should work together. I think we should be able to post these fake recruiters info on the forum so that unsuspecting esl teachers will know to stay away.

It gets a bit tiring receiving so many scams about jobs overseas, I wonder are there people that are falling for this and if so what is happening to them??

I'm a little curious.

What is a "fake" recruiter? Is it a guy who turns out to be Jeremy Beadle[Candid Camera joke!]? A guy who turns out to be a squirrel? A guy who in fact turns out to be a Top Businessman trying to make you into a sleazy executive? A guy who turns out to be made of glue, toilet rolls and tissues? A guy from Basildon who spent most of his life on the Surrey Street Market selling fruit and fake batteries? Or someone who offers you a job and a contract that you don't like?

If it's any but the last one, SIGN THEM UP!
