Quick summary
Indeed Messages are a way for you and employers to communicate about the job listing, CV or application. You may receive a message containing inappropriate, misleading or concerning content. Use the Report spam feature in your Indeed Messages inbox to report conversations that aren't about work. These spam messages are usually about outstanding bills, health insurance, banking issues and more. Never respond to a message you believe to be spam.
