Electrical Agent Phone Scam Alert! - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

-- Anecdotes, Gripes & Humor
-- Antennas
-- CAE, CAD, & Software

Greetings:

I have received multiple annoying, unsolicited recorded phone messages today from a job site called Electrical Agent. After the third one in a few hours, I filed a
complaint with the FCC. I encourage you to file FCC Form 1088, too.

Yes, my phone number is listed in the federal Do Not Call list.

I am utterly sick of these headhunter websites and agencies intruding on the privacy of people. They pass resumes and personal information around without regard for
clearly printed copyright notices and warnings against distribution. They employ companies who send web bots out to download every page on websites in search of resumes
to steal, and then charge other companies for the information that they stole.

If there is a lawyer out there in the audience (maybe a patent lawyer), is there any kind of massive class action lawsuit that could be mounted to put these scumbags out
of business? This has been going on for a long time, but the Internet has really provided a fertile hunting ground for unscrupulous recruiters.
