Written by Metal Toad Staff | May 29, 2025 9:50:42 PM

Hello, person from the internet. If you're checking to see if we are a real business, I'm happy to say that we are. We specialize in many things including AWS Cloud services, SaaS Development, Generative AI, and more. We also have a long list of case studies that you can see if you are interested in learning about how we have helped other people.

Unfortunately in the modern age, it seems like today more and more scams are popping up. Scam job opportunities are especially super cruel as people looking to make an honest living fall victim to bad actors. 

Metal Toad is a business with strong core values, one of which is respect. Respect doesn't just mean being polite, it also means respecting your sensitive information. This is especially important since one of our services involves cyber security

So if that's the case, how do you spot a fake toad?

Well, here's a list of things we won't do:

  1. Direct you to any page not connected to this LinkedIn or our official career page
  2. Ask you to make a payment for any reason
  3. Ask you to send any sensitive information through nonsecure and unencrypted means
  4. Send an email through anything other than our official @metaltoad.com emails(metaltoad with a lowercase L not an upper case i)
  5. Send you any offers over text or WhatsApp

Happy job hunting!
