This past weekend, I was contacted by Aaron Jacobs, a district manager with Primerica Financial Services based in Addison, Texas. The message he left said, verbatim:
"Somebody said some real good things about you and we're looking to fill some positions."
He didn't mention his company name on the voicemail he left for me (he just said "my company"), but when I called back, I got his machine and it stated "Primerica Financial Services."
A quick Web search found that they have nothing to do with my professional field, magazine publishing.
This isn't fraud from the POV that I've lost money, however, it is definitely misrepresentation and I look forward to finding out how they got this phone number—it's not the one listed on my resume.
