Check the official registries yourself
Governments publish lists of licensed recruitment agencies and approved employers. They are free and public. If your agency is there and every detail matches, that is a good sign. Start here:
- Philippines — Department of Migrant Workers (DMW)Search licensed recruitment agencies and verified job orders.
- United Kingdom — Register of Licensed SponsorsEvery employer legally allowed to sponsor a work visa is on this list.
- Canada — Temporary Foreign Worker Program (ESDC)Employer LMIA information and lists of approved employers.
- United States — Department of Labor, Foreign Labor programsIncludes the official foreign labor recruiter lists.
- India — eMigrateVerify registered recruiting agents licensed by the government.
- Vietnam — Department of Overseas Labour (DOLAB)Licensed companies for sending workers abroad.
Official sites sometimes move pages. If a link stops working, search the registry name directly. And remember: a real registry entry is a good sign, but scammers often impersonate real licensed agencies — the name matching is not enough on its own. That is the part we check for you.
What a human verifies for you
The registries tell you if a name is licensed. They cannot tell you whether the person messaging you actually works for that company. We do the digging most people cannot do from another country.
- We check the agency or employer against the official government registries for your route.
- We check the company’s business registration, how old its website really is, and its official contact details.
- We contact the employer through its official channels to confirm the offer actually came from them.
- We review your offer letter and messages against known recruitment-fraud patterns.
- You get a written report: what we verified, what we could not verify, and every red flag we found.
After payment you will receive a short form asking for your offer letter and the recruiter’s details. Everything you send is deleted within 30 days.
Three steps, 72 hours
- Send us the offer.The offer letter or message, the agency or company name, and what you are being asked to pay. Five minutes.
- A human verifies it.Registries, business records, website history, and direct confirmation with the employer through official channels — not the phone number the recruiter gave you.
- You get the report.Plain language. What checked out, what did not, and what the red flags mean. The decision stays yours — now it is an informed one.
What we are not
This service only works if you can trust it. So here is the honest list:
- We are not immigration consultants or lawyers. We never give visa or immigration advice. If your question is about visas, you need a licensed immigration consultant or lawyer — and we will say so.
- We never sell jobs and never take money from recruiters or agencies. Anyone who asks you to pay to get a job is showing you the biggest red flag there is. You pay us to check facts — like paying a home inspector before buying a house. That independence is the whole point.
- We do not make the decision for you. We give you verified facts from official sources, with dates. What you do next is yours to decide.
- We cannot promise 100% certainty. Nobody honestly can. What we promise is real verification work against official sources, done by a human, reported plainly.
Built by an immigrant, for people betting on a future abroad
My name is Tom Pham. I am an immigrant. I know exactly what it feels like to bet your savings — and your family’s hopes — on a chance in another country. I wrote a book about that journey. Too many people I know made the leap and got robbed before they even boarded the plane.
Nobody should lose everything to a fake offer. That is why every check is done by a real person, and why the registry links above are free whether you pay us or not. You can read more about me at tompham.ca.
Fair questions, straight answers
What if my offer turns out to be real?
Then you board that plane with peace of mind instead of a knot in your stomach — and you know the paperwork trail behind your employer. People check real offers all the time. That is the point of checking.
Why does it cost $19?
Because a real human spends real time on your case: registry searches, business records, website history, and contacting the employer through official channels. $19 is what we can charge and still do the work honestly. Compare it to what a fake “placement fee” costs: usually $500 to $8,000, gone forever.
What do you do with my documents?
They are used only for your check, never shared with anyone, and deleted within 30 days. We do not sell data. We do not send marketing to the employer. We do not contact the recruiter you are worried about.
What if you cannot finish in 72 hours?
Full refund. Some checks involve registries in countries with slow offices. If we hit a wall, you get your money back and whatever we found so far, free.
Can I just do all this myself?
Much of it, yes — and the free registry links above are exactly where to start. What is hard to do yourself from another country: confirming the offer with the employer through official channels, checking business registrations, and knowing which patterns mean trouble. That is the part you are paying a human for.
Check it before you pay them.
