My employer fired me unfairly, I sued them and won. The problem is, everyone is scared to hire me because I sued my crooked former employer. telling the truth is no longer an option when looking for a job. Everyone pulls Social Security records now to see who your past employers were. The Reference Store told me they could create a fake reference using my old employer's company name. So I paid the  money, but they created a whole new fake company.  They said not to worry, since employers can't check Social Security records unless you give them permission. Yeah right. Employers will do it and never tell you, and there's no way you'll ever know.  Besides, if you tell them you don't give them permission to check your SS records, do you really hink they're going to hire you??? Checked on the fake webpage they created. At first it almost looked passable, and had about 5 pages. Checked a couple of weeks later, and in its place was a fake looking one page webpage. I guess that's what I get for hiring professional liars. lol  I never did call to see if they had a real phone menu and everything like they claimed, but something tells me that's a lie too.  They list has having been successful at getting people jobs with fake references  companies like ADT and Exxon, but I wonder.  They did provide a local phone number, though.  It took a few days longer to get started than they said. I never did get a job while using their services, so I guess they're not really much help.

I should have just got a friend to say I worked for them, such as a nanny, a gardner, etc., which would have been free.
