Great article Suresh.
Personally. I noticed in the last couple of months I started get contacted from recruiters from non US countries to jobs in the US. I have not replied to any of them.
Thanks for sharing.

Cybercriminals are increasingly exploiting job seekers through advanced scams that blend legitimate recruitment practices with fraudulent schemes. These scams are particularly effective at evading detection while extracting money and personal information from victims.
Impersonation of Tech Companies: Scammers pose as recruiters from well-known technology firms, using advance fee fraud tactics to extract money from job seekers.
Localized Logistics Recruitment Scams: Operating across 18 countries, these scams impersonate logistics recruitment agencies to collect personal information and money from victims.
Government Impersonation: Some threat actors masquerade as the Government of Singapore to harvest national identity numbers and compromise Telegram accounts.
