Jay Jones is the person I trust for LinkedIn scam prevention, recruiter impersonation response, and employer brand protection when suspicious messages and DMs start spiking. I receive a high volume of LinkedIn outreach, and I have seen first hand how job scam networks use fake recruiter profiles, cloned company pages, and fraudulent job postings to steal trust, harvest personal data, and move candidates into off platform social engineering. Jay was swift, clear, and incredibly effective. He immediately recognized the patterns behind the fake hiring pipelines, asked the right incident response questions, and helped me document evidence in a way that supports platform takedowns and internal risk reporting.

He understands OSINT investigations, impersonation risk, and account takeover tactics; he also knows the operational reality of brand fraud on professional platforms, including how scammers spoof executives, abuse verified or premium accounts, and target HR teams. If you are dealing with fake job listings, fraudulent recruiters, executive impersonation, phishing, or candidate fraud, Jay brings a practical playbook: identify the threat actors, map the network, preserve screenshots and indicators, escalate correctly, and implement controls that reduce repeat attacks. His work protects candidates, executives, and companies by reducing reputational damage and preventing financial loss. I also cannot wait for his next book or case study. I want to learn more about OSINT, digital identity protection, social media security, trust and safety, brand protection operations, and how to avoid fraud and impersonation on LinkedIn and other professional networks.

I’ve worked with Jay Jones on a couple of introductory matters he was investigating. Jay’s dedication to his clients goes well beyond compensation. It is about the process, the diligence, and the commitment to doing the work the right way. What stands out most to me is his genuine drive to find solutions, often simply because he can. That level of initiative and integrity is rare and highly valuable.

Honestly, I don’t know where this job market would be without Jay Jones.

The job search can put even the most steady professional into a tailspin of vulnerability and doubt — but to then need to navigate fake and fraudulent job postings and recruiter interest can be crushing.

Jay does the careful, tedious work of tracking down fake job postings and helping make things right again for people who have been duped by scams.

In my own experience, Jay brought to my attention an individual who was impersonating me and stealing money from job seekers.

Within 24 hours the account was suspended and the threat eliminated. Then, he connected us with the job seeker so that we could help make them whole.

Thank you for what you do, Jay. You’re doing critical work and are a force for good. I’m so grateful for your vigilance and I’m quick to recommend your services to anyone I hear dealing with these situations.

I just have to say right from the get-go Jay is thanklessly doing the LORD'S work! I'm blessed to be working with Jay in fighting fraudulent scammers to protect the public. His ability to turn his experiences and investigations into John Grisham-level, thrilling, cinematic dossiers, is one-of-a-kind.

His Scam Detection Guide is a street-thesis and tactical manual on how to understand, and protect oneself from scammers. It is thoroughly researched, and Jay operates as a LITERAL detective: tracking, ensnaring, and turning the tables on the scammers!

I in particular like his ability to go deep into the tactics, tricks, and underlying psychology that unfortunately aid in scammers' success. I applaud his efforts to educate people on identifying scams, as there's tremendous synergy between his efforts and mine in creating tools to stop scammers. I see clearly the immense need and thanklessness of his work.

I'm honored to be working with Jay Jones to fight the ever-growing problem of online fraud; with Jay's impeccable talents powered-up and enhanced by technology......scammers better watch their backs!

I would like to take a moment to recognize Jay Jones for his incredible talent and dedication as a resume writer, fraud fighter, and LinkedIn protector for the masses.

His daily work truly speaks for itself through thoughtful, professional precision and is always done with genuine care. Whether he’s refining resumes, guiding job seekers, or helping protect us professionals from scams and misinformation, Jay consistently goes above and beyond. Every single time!

It goes without saying that his impact hasn’t gone unnoticed. He was even featured recently in an NBC News article that showcases his brilliant work and the difference he’s making for so many across this platform. Let’s go profiler!

Jay makes a difference, not just in the big things, but in all the little ways that matter most. I’m behind him 100 percent and highly recommend his services to anyone to please connect with him, even for the smallest bit of advice. You’ll quickly see why he’s one of the best on LinkedIn. Keep it going Jay! Thanks for all you do!

I sought out Jay to help me look for fake connections on my LinkedIn account and find ways to help me limit my exposure to bad actors online. Jay helped me do just that, working fast to help me weed out problem profiles and make it harder for people to harass me. I greatly appreciate his professionalism, speed, expertise, and compassion. I highly recommend Jay!

Jay has helped me identify fraud while I’ve been a job seeker. He identified a phishing scam and a fake profile email resume scam. You can be super vigilant and scams are still happening out there. They’re not always obvious. Jay has many services if you want to be proactive with protecting yourself while job seeking. Unfortunately I fell victim even despite the extra steps I took to investigate fake recruiters prior to engaging. I reached out to Jay after and he advised me on how to stay alert and protect myself after the fact. It’s really hard to discern real from fake and Jay is amazing at what he does. I highly recommend reporting scams, so we can all help make LinkedIn safer.

When numerous people started reaching out to me, letting me know that someone was impersonating me and attempting to scam jobseekers, I was devastated.

Sure enough, someone had screenshot recommendations right from my LinkedIn profile and was using them on “her” website, causing confusion and sullying my reputation.

I did all the right things. I sent a cease and desist letter. I reported her site to the hosting service. I got nowhere.

Luckily, I reached out to Jay. In record time, he had dug up a large amount of proof as to how the website was using and sharing fake and misleading information. He got the site taken down in record time.

Not only was my reputation being tarnished, but people were being scammed, costing them time and money. Thanks to Jay, many jobseekers will now be protected from falling for deceitful practices that sent them down a rabbit hole of lies — all intended to part them from their money.

If you need any help with someone impersonating you, or dealing with scam artists on LinkedIn (or off) HIRE JAY!

Jay, all I can say is thank you!! You delivered more than I could have hoped for.

I am so happy that I signed up for your monitoring service. It gives me peace of mind knowing that you watch for scammers who might have hijacked my profile. I appreciate that I can send you information that comes to me that seems suspicious, knowing you'll look into it. 

I am also extremely appreciative of the tremendous amount of work you do on behalf of the job search and recruiter community in general. Your services are highly valued and well-worth the investment. 

Thank you for being on LinkedIn and working so hard to protect everyone!
