The Employment Scam Aegean Dataset (EMSCAD) is a publicly available dataset containing 17,880 real-life job ads that aims at providing a clear picture of the Employment Scam problem to the research community and can act as a valuable testbed for scientists working on the field. Our first publication is available online by MDPI Future Internet Journal.

EMSCAD records were manually annotated and classified into two categories. More specifically, the dataset contains 17,014 legitimate and 866 fraudulent job ads published between 2012 to 2014.
