job scams: still around and proliferating

with many people being laid off with less than appetizing severance packages or no packages at all, job scams have began proliferating all around.  with job scams come identity theft among other things.  eknme highly recommends using Credit Karma to save yourself from this.  a lot of so-called human resource companies are touting their services as well, but to date, none have given eknme any indication they are indeed working or just spamming email.

the new trend has been spamming your phone it seems for jobs from no-name companies.  how they get these numbers no one knows?  perhaps from a phone list — or online job sites such as Indeed and Monster. where the united states unemployment rate hasn’t changed over the past couple of years, it is frightening the proliferation of these job scams.  president obama and his government sure hasn’t taken to heart to put a stop to these scams.  nor has the state and local governments, it seems.

the job market today has definitely become the wild west with no rules and no regulations.

stay safe out there!
