Which guides did we update recently?
- Account Executive Account executives sell to and look after business (B2B) clients, with targets and commission. Having to buy a product package or pay a deposit is suspect.
- Accountant Professional accountants in Indonesia pass the IAI CA or IAPI CPA exam and join the Ministry of Finance register. Titles sold without an exam are scams.
- Accounting Staff Accounting staff in Indonesia record transactions and prepare financial reports; most hold a D3 or S1. Part-time work that needs a deposit is a scam.
- Affiliate Marketer Affiliate marketers promote products through links and earn commission, with no fixed salary. A deposit or activation fee to release commission is a scam.

- Airline Pilot To become a pilot in Indonesia you need a class 1 medical, a certified flight school and a CPL licence. Brokers selling pilot places are scammers.
