Prompt

Assess [JOB OFFER OR MESSAGE] and any attached links for warning signs. Check requests for fees, identity documents or banking details; inconsistent company details; suspicious domains; pressure; and application route. If browsing is available, verify the employer through independent official channels. Separate observed red flags, unknowns and reassuring evidence. Give safe next steps and a neutral verification message I can send. Do not declare a person a scammer without sufficient evidence or tell me to pay to apply.
