The full text of this podcast along with additional information about job scams can be found on the US Federal Trade Commission website.
Here are some sentences to use for pronunciation practice. They are at the end of the podcast.
1- Scammers advertise jobs the same way honest employers do — online (in ads, on job sites, and social media), in newspapers, and sometimes on TV and radio.
2- They promise you a job, but what they want is your money and your personal information.
3- Here are some examples of jobs scams and advice on how to avoid them.
4- Scammers place ads, often online, claiming that they have jobs where you can make thousands of dollars a month working from home with little time and effort.
5 - Sometimes the scammers try to get you interested by saying that you can be your own boss, start your own business, or set your own schedule.
6 - But instead of making money, you end up paying for starter kits, so-called training, or certifications that are useless.
7 - You might also find that your credit card is charged without your permission.
8 - Or you get caught up in a fake check scam, where you deposit a check from your new employer.
9 - The employer then asks you to send some money back due to “overpayment,” but the check will ultimately bounce, and the bank will want you to repay the full amount of the fake check, while the scammers keep the real money you sent them.
