What do I do if I am the victim of a Phishing Scam?

 

  • Reset your CareerBuilder password immediately through the “Forgot password?” link located on the sign-in page.
  • Employers should contact their CareerBuilder Account Managers and/or Sales Representatives to make them aware of the situation- they can work with Trust and Site Security to make sure the user’s account is secured.
  • Perform a scan of your computer system with up-to-date anti-virus software; if on a corporate computer, contact your Tech Support immediately for assistance and advise them of the situation.
  • If malware is found on your computer, it is recommended to reset your password again through your Account Manager or from a verified malware-free computer system; you may also want to reset passwords for any other accounts you may have accessed through the infected computer.
  • Disregard all future emails that require you to update account information.
  • Forward the original phishing email message with full extended headers to CareerBuilder’s Trust and Site Security team.
