Job.com Stay away from this site!!

I had just moved to a new state and couldn't find a job. I went on Job.com for some help finding anything in the area but I didn't find anything through them either. Instead, I got phone calls about schools (no jobs though) when I tried to tell the person on the phone I was not interested, I got constant rebutals on how "it will only take a couple minutes". When I would tell them I didn't have time they would just hang up on me! This is not a legit site, DO NOT USE IT! The only way to get out of it is to make sure the person who calls you is with Job.com or linked to them, and tell them you would like to be removed from their list. Otherwise it is IMPOSSIBLE to get rid of them. PLEASE LET AS MANY PEOPLE YOU CAN KNOW ABOUT THIS SITE AND WHAT A SCAM IT IS! I wish I had known better!

Any job board that asks for your cell phone info is likely a scam, right. Same goes for any job site that keeps clients company info confidential, even whenthese clients post hundreds of jobs. Baaad site, stay clear!

Job.com SCAM

I want to thank everyone here for making your complaints. Without reading your warnings, I may have proceeded with this scam. I found a wonderful job posting ad on Craigslist that was right up my alley. I was perfect for the job. I replied to the listing and received a response that the HR manager would like to see my resume and to click on the link of a trusted website. After it had re-driected several times, I became suspicious. It ended up on job.com where a pop-up chat operator pressed me to start registering.
I looked up review for this company and found all the warnings thanks to you fellow “people” out there. I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me not get sucked into this mess. Once I asked them questions, they have not yet responded back to me...For any others out there, here is what my very realistic job ad and reply looked like...

Job.com False Advertisement of Jobs

I have viewed jobs on Indeed and followed link to Jobs.com. After giving so much information it turn out that you have to pay money to get your resume uploaded and the job you seek is not even available for you to apply for. This is some thing that all should report to the FCC or an other agancy thta handles scams and file a compalint againts indeed for allowing such a company to advertise on the website. I will file such a compalint. We don't know that this company is doing with our information. It could be being sold to another company.

Maybe someone can help me. I have been checking INDEED and SIMPLY HIRE for job postings in the London Ont. area. I come across job postings, apply and hear nothing. I then started checking the companies either by their websites or calling them and either they do not have the job posted on their career site or they move my call over to someone who is never there and never calls back. One company called me to tell me to go via Randstand agency even though the job posting did not mention anything about going with that agency, either on the posting on Simply Hire or the company posting on their site and when I called there was no mention to me about it either. I never get any call backs, just email saying if we want to see you we will contact you. My CV is impressive as I have been told so I can`t understand why after applying at 40 places since Feb 2011 I have only had 2 interviews of which they both hired intenal people, so why look outside the box. Has anyone else had this problem, I think alot of these jobs don`t even exist and people are being fooled .

Job.com e-mails

Job.com some how got my e-mail address. I have no idea how. I received about 15 e-mails in about 3 hours on the first day and it has since got worse. I even e-mailed the contact address at the bottom of the e-mail with the title Please remove me from your mailing list. They e-mailed me back with a job acceptance offer. Idiots! I logged on this morning to find a further 70 e-mails received from them since friday. There should be laws against this kind of outrageous spamming.
I do not even know who they are?
Thanks for listening.

Job.com Spam emails for jobs that don't exist

I have received about 15 emails all within the space of 10-15 mins this morning from job.com - all tell me they have a job for me, but with no specifics and the same text in every email - the only thing different in each email is the return email address, which generally comes from [protected]@wughire.com or [protected]@online-hire.com - all the emails have been sent to numerous others as well, with my email address being plainly visible to everyone else who is receiving these scam emails. No unsubscribe button, no contact info on job.com website except an email form - this is just plain vindictive preying on people who maybe desperate for work in these harsh economic times. Avoid job.com like the plague, it seems they are phishing for personal info and I will be finding a way to report them - and as I type this my email chimes and more of exactly the same emails come flooding in...

I have contacted job.com with a rather terse email telling them to stop, though the contact form on their website... Touch wood, I haven't had any since! I have also left a message on the Apple support forums as it seems to be only @me.com email addresses being targeted in the emails I am getting. I too am a member of Monster.co.uk and Totaljobs.com but I haven't visited either of these recently, although my wife did send me a couple of links from Totaljobs.com yesterday.

Don't expect the info above to correct. 201 Varick Street, New York is a US Government Building, so I would imagine the phone number is false as is the name Julia Morgan. The owner of wughire.com also owns another 17 domain names according to other sources on the internet, and these domains are probably being used for the same purpose!

For DNAPL-Scraple:
Sorry for the delay – I’ve been away for a few weeks and returned to a junkmail folder filled with these scam emails. It wouldn’t bother me except that my inbox also received bouncebacks related to these scams which means these Russians are still manipulating the header records and masquerading as legitimate businesses; such as mine.

As you said, over the past two weeks our “vrag naroda" at Regtime Ltd (aka webnames.ru) has attempted to use: australia-union.com and next-jobb.com to steal information in the same manner listed above. The MX records on these domains are no longer active.

This week they’re using new-wughire.com and an MX lookup confirms they are collecting victims info via Google mail servers again. I have notified security@google.com with the following:

“I have received dozens of spam/scam phishing emails from domains in Russia. I have checked MX records and it seems the spammer is using Google servers – at least to retrieve information from their victims.
http://www.mxtoolbox.com/SuperTool.aspx?action=mx%3awug-consulting.net

Please see attached many samples of the messages.
I notified you of their previous scams in March (see correspondence below) and I am pleased that the phishing emails stopped the day after I notified you. I’m hoping you will be just as proactive this time.”

I also observed the registrant email address of the offender is a yahoo address so I have alerted Yahoo with:

“Although this sample email has not come from a Yahoo user, it is a phishing scam and the registrant collecting victim's identity is a Yahoo user and a member of a major crime syndicate:

% Regtime Ltd. WHOIS server
Domain name: wug-consulting.net
Name servers:
ns1.nameself.com
ns2.nameself.com
Registrar: Regtime Ltd.
Creation date: 2011-04-27
Expiration date: 2012-04-27
Status: active
Registrant:
Vilechka Pelka
Email: rewerta12@yahoo.com

Could you please close or block rewerta12@yahoo.com as they (and their comrades) have been sending thousands of phishing scam emails for many months now. Thankyou.”

Paul.

Sample of email below:

Hello, we have a job offers avalible for people fromAustralia and new Zealand only.

Looks like the Russian hack is now using a new name and address (BE: Belgium) to register the bogus job websites. He is sending www.australia-union.com

Again, it is registered with RegTime. ICANN Registrar:REGTIME LTD.Created:2011-04-20

In the emails, he writes "Be ready to send us the personal information in order we will be able to call you back. Our e-mail: Bradford@australia-union.com"

Ok guys, here's the deal: for those of you who are applying for work, I'm sure many of you have applied via very reputable CV websites. What recruiters do (reputable and not-reputable) is buy databases of CV's (usually containing up to a few hundred CVs) for a certain price so that they can trawl through them so that they can match people up to the job that they have sourced. They can buy according to geographical area (i.e. 400 CVs for people looking for work in Midtown New York), industry (i.e. 600 CVs for people looking for Customer Services jobs), pay (we anna know the people who are looking for $50k+ jobs- they're doing alright haha) etc

If you've been lucky enough, a real employer might call you having "seen your CV on e.g. Monster.com (or some such other reputable recruiter website)" and have a suitable job for you- all perfectly legit. Hundreds of thousands of legit companies use these websites.

Now, what the scammers do is set up just enough (barely)checkable/legit company info and pretend to be a recruiter as well. The'll buy CV databases with your CV unfortunately on it, along with many others, and send out mass e-mails.

The only thing you can do to stop it is by:

1)Not using the CV websites (which is really not of any use to any one- for every scam artist, there are literally thousands of legit companies using the same website and you wouldn't want to miss out on the job you need/want because of some a**holes)
2)Through forums such as these, name and shame all of them so that those with a little less IQ than the rest can read messages such as "STAY THE F*** AWAY FROM www.wegotsomerealnicejobsforyou-ifyouralemon.com; they might be dodgy"
3)Get your spam filters up- my Yahoo! one is good at weeding these out
4)Don't get scared- if you had any idea how many people out there have your details, I swear to God you would never leave the house. Just beware, do your own due diligence.

If it's not one scam, it's another one.

Job.com Solicitation central

If you are a fan of time share presentations or you invite every door to door solicitor into your home to hear their spiel, this place should be nirvana for you.

I have received to date, 17 emails from job.com 15 were solicitations to buy something.

Even when I called to get them to take me out of their databases, the confirmation letter contained a solicitation.

I called back and was told I sent a request for the solicitation in my last email to them. When I demanded a copy the lady made an excuse that she confused my email with someone else's.

Never give these folks any information. You will be bombarded with solicitations.

Job.com A Tricky Waste of Time

I don't appreciate going online to what I thought was a legitimate employment search engine Job.com, and being transitioned to Jobfox, which is advertising the same job for a full benefit priority fee. I don't pay for jobs! There is a Jobs.com that is legitimate. Forgetting the (s) is their way of toward their site. They pull you in with F/T, and transitioned to Independent Contractor

I am not sure that this practice is legal, but know the trickery is not. I will report this to my congressional representative, Employment Development, and lobby for change. This is a rip off of time, and information for persons seeking real employment opportunities in the recessionary market that we're current experiencing.

I alway answer "No. I am not interested in furthering my education at this time" but get get bombarded by phone calls from "Educational Advisors".

Job.com keeps popping up in searches that I am doing through Indeed.com, which takes local job listings from other sites. I can't believe I've fallen for this scam again-- I am desperate for a full-time job and the ones they listed sounded like good matches for me. I think I may have fallen for this one before (been searching for a long time, and should have kept track of the scam sites, of which there are many) and have been receiving tons of spam to my email account. This just makes me so mad-- preying on people who are desperate. The people who run jobs.com should rot in hell.

Job.com offers potential jobs however when you go to apply the application has a continous line of questioning offering future education opportunities, and focuses on your interest in furthering your education. It does not appear that there is actually any job opportunity, based on the line of questioning.

Complaint about eNom here as well. I am talking about enom's mobi scam. I want to add that their billing notifications come from an email address "agnieszka212121@hotmail.com" . This has been going on for years. The person sending these mails does not even mention a real name, position or even company info.
Their clients have to guess which website they mean by "If you have any questions regarding this order please visit our support center on our web site." No link nor name in the entire email. No way to know who is sending the mail except the referral to my account name.
I also failed to disable access to my credit card so me too, I will be looking to move my domain registrations to a bona fide registrar.
I used GoDaddy in the past, and indeed, that is more of a game than a tool to work with. left them a while ago. have been with enom for 8 years or so.

IMHO Job.com is a "parasite" job site with no original content. They seem to take real job leads from one job board, then post this lead on another board, directing the original job application link to point to Job.Com. This forces you to register with Job.com before they forward you to the actual job board/site, which is usually JobFox. Once you get to JobFox or whatever, you have to register again there.

It gets better - I believe that Job.Com has no jobs. Instead they have spiders that sweep other job boards for their jobs. Then Job.com re-formats that information and places it on their board, with a link to the real job site (like JobFox). Every job that you select from their site forwards you to another job board. All of their impressive statistics about how many jobs they offer is simply a count of the number of jobs that their spiders have scavenged from other sources.

And no, they will not unregister you or delete your account.

The company SpiderMount sells a "Job Spider" that does just this - it is called "Job Wrapping" and "Job Scraping".

Job.com is owned by eNom - "domain reseller registrar". Two of their products are the "eNom API" and "Instand Reseller". eNom API allows the user to "Integrate into an existing site". It "seamlessly integrates with 3rd party merchant account/billing tools, hosting/email tools, and other value-added services.". Instant Reseller will "start earning revenue by driving customers to your very own white labeled storefront ".

It appears to me that Job.com has "integrated" into other job sites such as JobFox where they start "driving customers" (job seekers) to Job.com, where they "resell" the jobs that they find there.

eNom is owned by Demand Media.

Job.com Job.com Affiliate Program is a SCAM!

Job.com runs an affiliate program through CJ.com.

They pay .50 to $1 per lead that you send them through their website.

Now, what happens is this. They will accept about anyone into their Affiliate Program through CJ.com.

However when it gets close to pay day they will mark ALL of your leads as "Unqualified Leads" and not pay you for any of your commissions.

And, according to the CJ.com terms, their Advertiser (Job.com) can mark any leads they want as Unqualified Leads if they are in-fact Unqualified Leads.

However, they will mark ALL of your leads as Unqualifed Leads regardless if they are Unqualified or not. They won't do this to every publisher, as to not bring up suspicion with CJ.com however, chances are they will target you especially if you are a new publisher with them and do over $1, 000 a month in earnings like they got me for. If you bring it up with CJ.com and ask them to investigate, they will tell CJ that they have received hundreds of complaints against you and they will forward over "complaint documents" that they have cooked up to make you look like the guilty party. And CJ.com makes a lot more money by keeping them as an advertiser than they do by paying out their Publishers when a question comes up, so they will do nothing.

I started Googling around and apparently a lot of people are getting burned because of this Unqualified Lead business with them. So, it's not just me. It's a big scam operation that they are running over there, and CJ.com isn't being proactive about stopping them.

********Email me at "[protected]@gmail.com" if you want more info. I hope they Corporate steal from the poor a-holes get shut down for good and locked up behind bars fro stealing from small-time publishers like this.

********If anyone else has been scammed by Job.com please contact your local district attorney and insist that they look into this. You must file a police report in the home town of Job.com, which you can find via http://whois.domaintools.com/job.com ---- If nothing else works then have a lawyer subpoena CJ.com for Job.com records and file a lawsuit against CJ.com & Job.com for damages.

I agree that job.com is a scam. I have just given them all my information and it will not let me apply for the job they listed. I keep getting a response that I need to "finish registering"--which I have. job.com is full of advertisements and garbage.

I also think that job.com is a scam itself. I don't think they have any actual jobs. It appears they collect your personal information to then sell it to schools to use for marketing purposes. After applying for several jobs on job.com, my son's cell phone starting ringing off the hook from schools trying to entice him to enroll. He got several calls from someone claiming to be from a recruiter or an employer (very vague) saying that they had the qualifications to be considered for the job, but, in the meantime, wanted to dicuss educational opportunities. The positions that are posted by job.com all seem to have hourly wages over and above market rate, so I skeptical that they have any legitimate jobs.

Job.com Scam and cheating

I spoke with Robin at Job.com who solicited me to post a job with her organization. She specifically stated that the job would be shown on their site based on posting date. I went ahead with the job posting. I received an email from Robin stating the job had been posted. When I searched for it, it did not appear to show up. I emailed Robin at 3:37 pm on 10/21 and she did not respond. I then called her at 9am on 10/22 and she transferred me to the customer service department trying to avoid the issue. In speaking to customer service I was advised that my job was posted by 'class' and that is why it showed up on page 6 with other jobs over a month old and that is the reason I couldn't even locate it. I immediately asked for a refund and they refused saying the job had already been posted, even though it was posted under misleading circumstances and only for a matter of hours!

Just wanted to say that I used to be a job scout for JobNab, and that is a legit company, they hire on commission only. The object of this company is to find a job and post as many places you can where it will be seen by prospective employees. Some jobs are found on job boards, which is saturated horribly and you have to retype the job and description in own words and attach a link for the specific Company that is advertising the job position. Some people do not do that correctly and that is why it is rejected. Another thing is you need to make sure that the job you are posting is a job that your particular colleges and university's are needing people to get a higher education and then if you say yes you want the schooling or education, that is how the Scout gets paid here is a link...http://jobnab.wordpress.com/category/job-scout-advice/ check it out and good luck to you.

We all know that the ECONOMY really sucks and that there are so many people looking for work. Go to any Library in Manhattan and see how crowded it is with people using the computer looking for employment. I'm more than sure that quite a few people, including myself, have looked at JOB.COM seeking jobs. After reading this article about the possible SCAMMING game JOBS.COM may be playing i am deeply dissapointed! Although i would hate not calling any possible jobs offers they have posted, i do not want to fall into the trap. I would like to thank COMPLAINTS BOARD for posting this very important message. Thanks. Mocha6ft3.

Well...if there is a site with a generic name like job.com then most likely it's a scam. Use your head people. Don't be lazy and hit the bricks to get a job. Maybe that's why all ya'll are unemployed. Too lazy to look for work.

Yeah it wouldnt let me delete my account so I changed to all false info. Never got an e-mail or phone call since. Everyone go in and edit your accounts... Fake name (like, Yoursiteisa Scam), give cartoon characters addresses (simpsons, family guy) put in a phone number to either their number or to prank voicemail # (like humorhotlines.com ...etc.) alter your resume, so that if it does get posted, it says "Job.com is a Scam" and change Email to jobseekersupport@job.com ...let them get flooded with their own crap emails.
