You’ve seen the ads. “Earn $5,000 a month abroad! No experience needed!” Sounds great—until you realize you’ve just paid ₨200,000 to a fake agent who vanished overnight. I’ve been there. Not literally, thank God—but I’ve helped hundreds of Pakistanis recover from overseas job scams. And now, we’re hiring someone who gets it: someone who knows how to spot fraud, protect workers, and actually deliver real opportunities.
This isn’t just another job post. It’s a lifeline. If you’re serious about working overseas—or helping others do it safely—this role is for you. We’re looking for a Overseas Job Fraud Prevention Specialist based in Islamabad. You’ll work directly with job seekers, verify employer legitimacy, train local partners, and build systems that stop scammers in their tracks.
Why does this matter? Because in 2025 alone, over 12,000 Pakistanis reported losing money to fake overseas job schemes, according to the Overseas Pakistanis Foundation. Most paid between ₨100,000 and ₨500,000 for visas, “guaranteed jobs,” or “priority processing”—only to find out the company didn’t exist. This role exists to change that.

Company Overview
We’re not a recruitment agency. We’re a worker protection initiative backed by the Ministry of Overseas Pakistanis and Human Resource Development and partnered with verified employers in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Malaysia. Our mission is simple: connect skilled and semi-skilled Pakistani workers to real jobs—without the middlemen who exploit desperation. We don’t charge job seekers a single rupee. Ever. Instead, employers pay us a flat fee only after a worker is successfully placed and retained for 90 days. This model removes the incentive to scam. In my experience, transparency like this is rare—but it’s the only way to rebuild trust.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I apply if I’ve never worked in recruitment but have been scammed myself?
A: Absolutely. Personal experience with fraud is valuable—if you can demonstrate how it shaped your understanding of red flags. Just show us in your cover letter.
Q: Do you help job seekers recover money from scammers?
A: Yes, but only after verification. We work with legal aid partners to file complaints, but we can’t guarantee refunds. Prevention is our focus.
Q: Are there opportunities for field visits to Gulf countries?
A: Yes. Top performers may join verification trips to Dubai, Riyadh, or Doha 2–3 times per year to meet employers face-to-face.
Q: What’s the biggest mistake beginners make when avoiding overseas job fraud?
A: Paying upfront fees. Legitimate employers never ask workers to pay for visas, flights, or “registration.” If they do, it’s a scam. Simple as that.
Q: How is this role different from working at a regular recruitment agency?
A: We don’t profit from desperation. No commissions on placements. No hidden fees. Our success is measured by worker safety, not placement numbers.
