Got this just a bit ago:
"Hi stupidbird, this is Anna with jobrecruiter. I found your resume on ziprecruiter and I'd like to call you about a low-rent job that's so far below your skill level that it's not going to pay anywhere near what you're making. What's a good time to call?"
My reply:
"Hi Anna, I don't have a resume on ziprecruiter, if there's one there it's been placed without my permission. Can you send me a link?"
No reply of course, and I haven't used that email address in about two years due to it being in one of the many, many LinkedIn breaches. Why would you start out a contact with a direct lie? I realize it's a template but still. It makes you look really bad and lazy and I certainly don't want to speak with you.
