Hmmm, very interesting.
I have had a problem with Impeccable careers a.k.a. career-network.com also. Below is an email a friend of mine got because I used her as a job reference to one of the emails I rec'd from them saying they were interested in my resume a had posted on Career Builders. I "XXX" out names and email addresses for this posting.
This really ticks me off as I was laid off from my 13 year job and still can't find employment. I hope I don't loose my house to boot and then something like this happens.
I hope some kind of harrassment charges can be brought up against them for false info!!!
