On the higher end of the job spectrum MLM is not common. They usually just ghost you totally because it never was a real job on the other end. The number of jobs I have seen that are obvious 'by our policy we put this on the internet' is astounding. Tell tales of that is large amount of very specific requirements for a job and very low pay, basically a copy pasta of someones resume. I also see a lot of what I call reflection scams. Basically some recruiter copying some other job listing to try to become the middle man. You are usually better off searching for unique phrases in the description and finding the original posting. On the lower end MLM is rampant. Most of the ones doing it do not understand the math behind what they are trying to do. They are in the 'cult'. They honestly think they are 'growing their business' by recruiting and honestly wasting peoples time. Once you show them they need a large city sized group of people in their tree to make anything they usually drop out. Easy things to look for are 'be your own boss' 'work to your own rules' some crazy amount of money per week for no exp etc etc etc. Another common one I see is package laundering. Which is a scam where you pick up what is essentially stolen packages and re-mail them to someone else. Usually associated to some stolen credit card. At some point you will be left holding the bag when they fold up shop.
