Non-Stop Spam Emails

Non-Stop Spam Emails
I receive several emails every day from candidatepoint.co.uk advertising "jobs in your area". They started arriving just after I signed up the job hunting website indeed.co.uk
I have not signed up to any other job hunting websites, so they seem to be the likely culprit – either Indeed is giving away our email addresses, or they have been hacked by someone who is stealing them.

unwanted spam

unwanted spam. They took my data and started sending me cold call emails. If this is how they contact potential candidates, think what recruiters must think?

Spam recruitment

Spam recruitment. The post address provided is a mailbox shop, not an office. Ignored requests to stop sending messages. I never signed up with them, I'm not looking for work!

Indeed giving away personal details

Indeed giving away personal details

Offer me jobs close to home.

The closest one is 300 MILES AWAY!!!

I will now delete indeed job app as I believe they are the ones that give your details to them so I suggest everyone stops usuing indeed app until they stop giving away or selling your personal details

Continuous spam

Continuous spam, blatantly took my details from legit recruitment sites, as they started up not long after I started looking for a new job. I'm inundated by chancers like this, all their rubbish go straight to spam.

Very poor

Very poor - started spamming me a few weeks ago. Now getting 3 or 4 emails every day. Unsubscribed and reported to Google but still getting them. No idea where they 'stole' my email address from!

Spammers!

These guys are spamming all the spams for me are coming though Amazon.com from IP 54.240.14.101

And the spammer's website t.candidatepoint.co.uk are being hosted at IPs 54.237.249.87 and 34.197.152.66 which again belongs to Amazon.com

I have sent at least 6 - 7 spam complaints about this scumbag spammer to Amazon and they continue to ignore spam complaints

Currently (As of November 4 2017) the site is being hosted by Amazon.com but this is subject to change due to the number of complaints I am sure that Amazon.com is getting about this scumbag spammer.

If you want to reach Amazon.com about this scumbag spammer and it is still being hosted by IPs owned by Amazon.com you can do so in the following ways.

Amazon Also has an online reporting form as well at https://aws [dot] amazon [dot] com/forms/report-abuse
which you can send complaints through as well.

Do not go to this website candidatepoint.co.uk or enter any kind of personal information there it will be abused by this spammer!

Scam

Sent me an email without me signing up, with them seeming to have gained my personal details and location from someone else.

The first result on Google after their webpage is Entitled "Candidate Point Scam"
