I want everyone to know what kind of company that Career Builder is. They are lower than telemarketers when they sell your contact information to companies like United American Insurance. I had my contact details hidden from employers on the three resumes I had stored.

Unfortunately, Career Builder sold my contact details to United American Insurance because my name and email address appear in this personalized email that I have been receiving at least six times a day for the past three days. Because of their greedy ways, I deleted my registration from their site and will not longer have anything to do with them. I will also promulgate to all of my friends nationwide how they violated their privacy policy.

Here is the text of the email I received:

====
