Since they already HAD my most recent resume, I started to smell a skunk so I did some research on 'Professional Search Recruiting' and went to their Web site www.professionalsearchrecruiting.com and here's the entire Web site content listed below;

No openings listed, no companies that were hiring....nothing! So now I thought I was really on to something....and I went deeper. I went to www.register.com and looked up "WhoIs", and typed in THEIR Web site, and low and behold, guess what? Who do you think owns the domain www.professionalsearchrecruiting.com? You got it! United Medical Network!
ANY COMPANY that has to stoop to such levels should be loaded up on a boat, sailed out to sea and used as target practice by the US Navy.
Be it known that this is the very first time I have listed a company for fraud. If I were an attorney, I would be scouring this Web site for lawsuits every day!

The day after I posted my complaint, I got a call from the President of United Medical Network. It was a nice conversation, and he apologized for what had happened, and states that he has corrected the problem. Further, he said, "Thank you for bringing this to our attention". He sounded sincere, and I would like to believe that he has done just that.
I volunteered to write this addendum, to whit he reminded me that I was under no obligation to do so. I told him that I believed he had done the right thing in contacting me, and I would do the same.
End of story.
