Heads up, Maxim Cover Girl models—scammers are back, and this time, they’re pretending to be Maxim executives and recruiters.

We’ve received multiple reports of fraudsters reaching out via email, text, and Instagram DM with fake job offers. They’re setting up phony interviews, posting bogus job listings, and even sending fake offer letters.

Their endgame?
They’ll eventually ask for money or your financial details to “purchase” equipment for a fake remote job. It’s a scam.

How to Spot the Fakes:

Real Maxim recruiters only contact you via official emails: @maxim.com or @maxim.vote
Official Instagram accounts: @maximmag & @maximmag_covergirl
🚫 If you get messages from Gmail, Yahoo, or any personal email—IT’S A SCAM.

What to Do:

Don’t engage.
Don’t send money.
Don’t share personal info.

We’re actively working to shut these scammers down—reporting fraudulent job posts and accounts, and working with law enforcement to put an end to it.

If you ever have doubts about a job opportunity with Maxim, reach out directly at support@maxim.vote.

Stay sharp. Stay skeptical. And don’t let scammers cash in on your ambition.
