How to Spot a Fake Offer Letter
Learn the key differences between legitimate and fraudulent internship offers
Signs of a FAKE Offer
- Personal email domain
Uses gmail.com, yahoo.com instead of a corporate email
- Demands upfront payment
Asks for "registration fee," "security deposit," or "training charges"
- Generic greeting
"Dear Candidate" or "Dear Student" instead of your name
- No company registration
Missing CIN number, registered address, or official letterhead
- Urgency tactics
"Respond in 24 hours," "Limited slots," "Seats filling fast"
- WhatsApp / Telegram for HR
Official communication via personal messaging apps
Signs of a GENUINE Offer
- Corporate email domain
Uses @company.com or @companyname.co.in
- No upfront payment required
Legitimate companies never charge candidates to join
- Personalized greeting
Addresses you by your full name
- Company CIN & registered address
Includes verifiable company registration details

Gives you adequate time (7–15 days) to respond
- Official HR contact
Named HR person with designation, email, and phone
🔑 Golden Rule
If a company asks you to pay money to get an internship — it's a scam. Period. No legitimate company charges registration fees, security deposits, or training costs from interns. If you receive such an offer, report it immediately to your college placement cell and the National Cyber Crime Portal.
About InternShield
Why we built this and what problem we're solving
Our Mission
InternShield was created with a simple mission: no student should lose money or personal data to a fake internship offer. We provide a free, anonymous tool that anyone can use to verify an offer letter before committing to it.
The Problem
With the rise of remote work and online recruitment, fake offer letters have become increasingly sophisticated. Scammers impersonate real companies, create convincing letterheads, and pressure students into paying "registration fees" or sharing sensitive documents like Aadhaar and PAN cards.
How We Help
Our analysis engine combines 8 rule-based structural checks, NLP language pattern analysis, and named entity verification to score any offer letter across multiple dimensions. The result is a clear, actionable report — no signup required, no data stored permanently.
