Answer

Are fake job offers a common risk for newcomers in Mallorca?

Yes, fake job offers are one of the ways traffickers can try to target people who are new to the island and looking for work. The risk is higher when someone does not know local employers, does not understand the paperwork, or feels pressured to accept quickly. Checking offers carefully and being cautious with contacts made online can help reduce that risk.
