Methodology

Weekly releases aggregate deterministic warning signals from user-initiated checks. WFH.team does not store submitted message or description text, email local parts, identity documents, banking details, or raw IP addresses. Counts are published only after at least 10 checks; individual community reports are not published.

Limitations

A risk score is evidence-based triage, not a determination that a person, domain, employer, or job is fraudulent. Submission patterns reflect WFH.team users and may include duplicates or incomplete context. Community-flagged domains are labeled separately from independently verified indicators.
