I usually dont answer #'s i do not know.. but i did b/c i too was looking for employment & had been applying a lot here recently. they had a lot of my information and wanted to confirm it and also said they would forward it on to a hiring manager. it sounded legit, to the point until i asked what company was hiring me.. they said it was "confidential." i tried calling the # back and "circuits were busy" numerous times. i looked it up on here and sure enough, its a scam.
It must be something with Craigslist. I just applied for a job and this number called me. It called me last week too. I did a reverse lookup and the number is based in St. Louis, MO. The job I applied to was in Pittsburgh!
