While creating user accounts in search of a job I created a user account yesterday (6/25/08) at careernetworkjobs.com more commonly referred to as Career Network Inc. I found this supposed employment site when I googled for online employment and it came up with the likes of Careerbuilder.com, Monster Jobs etc.
This morning I received the following response (to a payroll position I completed an online application for by submitting a resume):

When I tried to login to the site (http://www.careernetworkjobs.com/) I kept receiving this error:
'Invalid Login
The combination of username and password that you entered is invalid.'
This was when I got suspicious and googled the company and found NO REAL COMPANY information existed for them and that there were many SCAM ALERTS describing this bogus company whom displayed similiar but not alwys the same business name.
Tada here I am on usacomplaints.com feeling like sucker now that someone has my RESUME containing my work history, cell phone, email address and physical address. Thank GOD we don't put any other crucially life damaging information in resumes. But now I know I have to watch for scams with my personal and contact info floating around the world wide web.
This sucks!
