Warning! - Careerexperts.org and Sister Mary Joseph are a dangerous scam operation. I applied for a position on-line, and received an e-mail stating that many jobs were available, however my resume was very outdated and wouldn't stand a chance against all the others out there. Having owned my own business for 16 years, I fell for it. I assumed that things in the market had changed so much that perhaps I needed to update the "look".
Almost word for word from the writer in Atlanta, the "resume" turned out to be copied and pasted to a template, and information on the samples was not even removed first. My resume had information that wasn't mine. I was also promised that she was in contact with many companies and that my skills were in demand... I should be receiving offers any day. When pressed for the names I was ignored.
Looking back I can see that bells should have gone off, but after moving to a new state after closing a successful business, the economy being what it is, I was desperate to find work. Fortunately, I paid with American Express, and called them after I realized I'd been had and charged the money back.
This is when the abuse started. Threatening e-mails filled with expletives were followed by promises to make my life a misery. I started receiving phone calls with no one on the line at all hours of the day and night. I blocked the calls I was able to, and reported this to the police. They, unfortunately, have no authority to stop harrassing phone calls! I have also filed a report with the FBI Internet Scam division. I deal with the phone calls by unplugging my phones at night, and not answering callers that don't come up on the ID.
Be warned, this person is evil and a thief. I, like Anonymous in Atlanta hope he is found and arrested.
