877-789-9861

I got a call from this number.  I sent an email to this person regarding a job, and they sent a link requesting that I provide further information.  As soon as I filled out the information, I received a phone call from the above number.  Of course they didn't leave a message.  The contact person and email address I was given is: Helen.Davenport@gmail.com.  This is definitely a marketing scam!

I just posted a message regarding this number.  Correction on the email.  Helen.Davenport.Biosource@gmail.com.  This is the link with the questions about continuing education:

http://employmentforever.com.

Returned the call from the caller ID posted(no voice message left)and told the woman that I am a high school graduate and do not wish to further my education(no funds) - PLEASE! - She told me that I had posted information online from the day before and I told her that I did not as well - ENOUGH ALL READY!

Thanks for your post. I answered an ad on Craiglist yesterday; the contact has a gmail address also. She sent me a link to something called DirectSource.com, to which I uploaded my resume. I looked at other job listings on that site first to see if it was legit, and I saw listings from a local university. But today, I got a phone call from this 800 number, and now I'm concerned it's a scam...

This guy called and told me I was qualified for some grants, scholarships, etc.  I am currently going to school but I have not applied for any of this.  I asked him how he got my information and he said I had applied for information.  I have not.  Then he asked me if I was going to school and said he had some great financial sources he could share with me.  I told him I fine and hung up.  It seemed like a scam.

Applied for some Data Entry Clerk position through what looked like some kind of staffing website.  Immediately upon submitting my application, received an automated phone call about some furthering education crap that had a callback number.

Yes, I answered a Craig's List ad for a JOB and got a call about furthering my education as well.

I answered an ad on Craigslist for a job in a local school office.  After submitting my resume to the email address requested, I got a short form to fill our to "complete the application process"--seemed harmless, but then in order to submit that, I had to say whether or not I was interested in furthering my education.  I said yes.  Now this number is calling me (1-877-789-9861)

Ditto to all of the above..man what a scam and now they have my resume and personal info from the *job listing* I thought I was applying to
DIRTY RATS!!!

I had just clicked the submit button when I received a call from these people. Why is looking for a job getting so difficult? It seems like everything out there is a scam. "Make $500 a day from home" BS!

No voicemail and they call everyday

I ansewred the craigslist post as well and just got the same call from the 877 number. I was  asleep so I didn't pick up, and they did not leave a message. The internet says it's a toll free #!

Yeah same thing. I think I'll reference my attorney the next time they call.

Yup, I too replied to an add on craigslist and got a phone call from the very same phone number. I didnt answer cuz I knew that 877 numbers are usually someone selling something or collecting something. Thanks for having this thread to confirm my suspicion.

Q:  Has anyone papplied withthis company prior to receiving the call?

  VOICE APPLIED CUSTOMER SERVICE

Q:DId anyone receive an email from Background checks at carreer service inc?

I rec'd the same call. I have a Master's Degree and would never ask for information to continue my education as I cannot find a job as it is. I don't appreciate this company sharing my phone number. I told them I listed under the National No Calls Listing and the caller began to stutter and seemed very nervous but I am not satisfied  with that.

I applied for a job on craiglist a couple of days ago, and the next day i received a "courtesy call". I spoke with someone and they asked me if i was interested in furthering my education. I received a call from this number also. I am pretty sure it is a scam.

Thought I was applying for some college schoarships...two mminutes after I hit send, my phone rings with this unknown number. I told them they had the wrong number and hung up..looks like it was a scam

SPAM call - called me on cell- left computer message about furthering my education. Thanks for using up my minutes.

I was applying for a job from a link I had received and the same thing that happened to everyone here happened to me.  As soon as I hit the "submit" button, my cell phone rang and it was from the number everyone is referencing here.  These scammers are out of control!!!

I also followed a link that I received as a reply from a (supposed??) job on craigslist. I think we can all deduce this is just ANOTHER SCAM!!
Didn't answer, you'd think by now "they" would realize most people know a scam/sales/debt-collector by the prefix. Ohh well, as long we keep each other informed, we have the advantage. Like GI Joe said "Knowing is half the battle" Peace
