i did some on-line
job applications and clearly saw the box that asked do you want to further your education. Even though I checked no, they obviously do not care--that is what the calls are about they want half of your money you will get to go to school--they do NOT want to give you a job...what a scam!!!! It should be illegal.I am going to put them on my do not call registry number list. They will get fined if they call again.
Signed up earlier today on a job search website and have gotten two calls from Academic Advisors - the first from (980)265-5501 and now a second one from this number. I have called both back and receive the exact same recorded message about "continuing education" - I did the Press 2 for removing my number, then Press 1 to remove the number I'm calling from. We shall see. (I too did not mark anything on the job website to send me info...)
I got a call from a male yesterday. He said he was a service provider for a college I was interested in. that I had applied on-line. he said we could proceed by phone and requested my ss# I told him I was not interested and hung up. Be careful. Hope no one falls for this.
