Ang recruiter email na parang may mali

Noong Linggo ng gabi, nakatanggap ako ng recruiter email tungkol sa isang Learning & Development opportunity.

Propesyonal.
Personalized.
May LinkedIn profile pa.

At oo… sumagot ako.

Pero may kakaibang pakiramdam.

Ang mga sumunod kong natuklasan ay nagbigay ng seryosong tanong tungkol sa recruiter scams, resume harvesting, at personal information mining na tumatarget sa mga naghahanap ng trabaho.

At Scott Leonardis — salamat sa pagiging mabait at propesyonal sa buong usapan.

Panoorin muna ang teaser video na ito… pagkatapos pumunta sa page para makita kung paano nangyari ang lahat at kung ano ang natutunan ko:

The recruiter's email that almost fooled me

Late Sunday night. A LinkedIn message about a Learning & Development role.

Professional tone. Personalized details. A real-looking profile attached.

I responded.

Then something felt off — and the more I looked, the worse it got.

What I found raises serious questions about how job seekers are being targeted: resume harvesting, personal data mining, and scam infrastructure that's hard to spot even when you're paying attention.

I documented the whole thing — the red flags I missed, the ones I caught, and what it means if you're actively job searching right now.

(And Scott Leonardis — genuinely, thank you for being courteous throughout. That's what made this so disarming.)
