Hello,

I'm a newbie and I've been jobhunting online on yahoo hotjobs, so I've been getting a fair amount of spam. I fell for the-job-orbit scam (but am fortunately not receiving spam from them) even after scouting out the website for a while.

Now I find a link for Connect Staffing - Bringing employers and job candidates together for successful, long-term matches and it looks built out, but features similarly strange stock photography (a frog prince and a little girl with a hand cupped behind her ear "listening").

I emailed with the subject "testing to see if this is a real site" and received this:
Thank you for submitting your resume to Connect Staffing, Inc. We will
review your resume as soon as possible. If you need to reach us right
away, please call us at 404-946-1949.

The phone number lists an employee directory, the first name of which is "Laura Maurice" which is mentioned on the website.

What also struck me as odd was the request for the social security number. Um, no.

Any news on them? Googling their address brings up several "websites" who are also at that 400 galleria parkway address. It sure does look like another one of those legal fraud headhunter sites.

Thanks!
