I think the people calling are from an Online College... I tryied looking for a Job resently & they basically wouldn't get off the phone until I said they could send info. & someone could call... BUT I did not realized theses [***] Holes would keep calling instead of leaving a message like I told the guy to do & if I was really interested I would call them back
I started getting these calls after registering my resume on monster.com. I spoke to a girl initially who transferred me to some guy who claimed his name was "Ashle from National Debt Services" and spoke with a very thick pakistani accent informed me that charges were being brought against my social security number because I owed $700-some odd dollars for a payday loan and he would take a payment of $350 over the phone with my credit card and write the rest of the debt off if I paid it right then and there. I have never had a payday loan, and how exactly do you bring up charges against a social security number? LoL. I'm a legal student, so I humored him for a little bit until he finally got upset and told me that he would have the sheriff at my house to arrest me early the next morning... a Sunday, mind you. I told him I was looking forward to meeting him. Of course nothing ever came of it, they're just trying to rip off unsuspecting people. Block the number, and if you do happen to answer don't give them any information. That's all you can do.
This is a scam. I filed a complaint with the Attorney General and they sent me information. Because this company or person calls from a different number (throughout the united states) they are unable to track them. Of course they advised not to give any money. These freaks have been calling me since 2009.
This is (one of many reasons) why NO one should post their personal identifying information on this or any other job website.
Monster.com had a major security breech several years ago in which someone hacked into their website and stole personal data. Apparently it is still going on unabated.
