ABSTRACT
● The technique for the classification for avoiding fraudulent posts for jobs over the
internet, a machine learning tool has been proposed which is based on classification
techniques.
● Different classifiers are used for checking fraudulent posts on the web and the results of
 those classifiers are compared for identifying the best employment scam detection model.
● It helps in detecting fake job posts from an enormous number of posts which are received
on social media platforms or through some job providing portals. Support Vector Machine
learning algorithm is being considered for fraudulent job posts detection.

INTRODUCTION
● There are a lot of job advertisements on the internet even on reputed job advertising sites
,which never seem fake but after selection the so called recruiters start asking for money
and bank details many of the candidates fall into their trap.
● And after falling into their trap they lose a lot of money and the current job sometimes so
it is better to identify whether a job advertisement posted on the site is real or fake. So we
have developed a project on fake job listing detection.
● We have built project through natural language processing or basically by creating the
natural language processing pipeline.
● Identifying fake jobs manually is very difficult and almost impossible hence we can apply
machine learning to train a model for fake job classification.
● It can be trained using the data of previous real and fake job advertisements so that it can
identify a fake job accurately.

OBJECTIVES
● According to Federal Trade Commission americans were scammed out of $68 million due
to fake business and job opportunities in the first quarter of 2022
● There are a lot of job scams because of unemployment there are a lot of websites that
connect a recruiter to a suitable candidate sometimes fake recruiters post a job posting on
job portal with a motive to get money this problem occurs with many job portals later
people shift to a new portal in search of a real job but the fake recruiters join this portal as
well hence in today's world it is important to detect real and fake jobs for this project we'll
be making use of natural language processing
● To overcome these challenges we have created a machine learning tool to protect people
from getting scammed.
● In this project we'll first pre-process the raw data by tokenizing and removing the stop
words. This pre-process data will later be used to extract features using techniques like
term frequency and inverse document frequency to train the model we'll be using a
classification algorithm.

PROPOSED METHODOLOGY
● The rough idea of implementation is shown as given below.
● Through the nlp models we will create pipelines and train our machine learning based
model.

SOFTWARE SPECIFICATION
Python 3.7
Jupyter Notebooks
Libraries:- Numpy, Pandas, Matplotlib,SkiCit learn

FUTURE SCOPE
The suggested effort would reduce the scammers and help people to find easy ways to check the
fraud offers. The sum of these will benefit the young and unemployed students searching for jobs
and paying money without cross verifying.

The model presently identifies certain scammers through nlp but surely it can be created through
a portal or application to detect the offers.
