Is it a scam to work abroad?

Not all opportunities to work abroad to make big money are scams, but it should be noted that some unscrupulous intermediaries and traffickers will defraud job seekers of their money in the name of working abroad to make money and sell them to illegal employers or people who want to immigrate illegally. Here are some ways to tell the truth from the false:

1. Choose a formal intermediary and avoid contact with "private intermediary" or "black intermediary". When choosing an intermediary, you must see clearly whether it has legal qualifications, and ask the intermediary to issue relevant certificates or qualification certificates.

2. Pay attention to the security of personal data. When submitting personal information, you should choose a platform certified by a well-known company or national government to avoid revealing personal information such as identity certificate and work permit to bad intermediaries or individuals.

3. Take the initiative to understand the situation of the destination. For the destination of going out to work, we should understand the local culture, laws and habits in order to better adapt to the local working and living environment.

4. Don't trust the promise of high income easily. Some traffickers will lure job seekers with high salaries, but in fact it is probably a scam. We should treat our own ability and market competitiveness rationally, expect reasonably, and don't expect too much.

In short, there are opportunities to make a lot of money when working abroad, but we should choose formal channels to protect the safety of personal information and fully understand our own capabilities and market conditions. Before going abroad, you should read the relevant employment contracts carefully, and consult professional organizations or local embassies and consulates in time when you encounter problems or doubts in job hunting.
