A growing cyber scam is exploiting job seekers by using fake employment offers as a cover for financial crime. Fraudsters are convincing unsuspecting applicants to receive, transfer, or move money on behalf of supposed employers, effectively turning them into "money mules" used to launder illicit funds.

Authorities are urging applicants to verify job offers, research companies thoroughly, and avoid handling money for unknown employers. Here's how the scam works and how to stay protected.
