    I have recently learned my ****** regarding the importance of discernment when seeking employment online. I have learned that to do so is to travel down an endless rabbit hole of scam artists from around the world with no intention of employing ******* job seekers. The advertisements that the American Career Guide sends to my email address frequently, seem to be completely made up, not true job offers and not posted by the actual companies. Its just an endless process of clicking. I have selected the Unsubscribe option an innumerable amount of times for an innumerable amount of email notifications... to no avail. The emails will not stop, I do not even think the contact address information is legit, I have received obvious email job invites from people with names largely found in the eastern region of the world and my device has notified me about serious malware being attached. I would like The American Career Guide to stop contacting me and truly take my email address off the list and stop providing me the option to unsubscribe but not the reality of unsubscribing. I do not understand why people waste others time in this manner but then again, if it is some sort of scam which it seems to be....it just goes with the territory. A waste of time and possibly a threat to your cyber safety.

    I have opened 15 windows following the path to ***** jobd in my town. The email that I got suggested that an interview was set up for me, just follow the link. ********.I have had to enter my name, email, phone number 12 times, been asked if I wanted to work with Doordash 8 times, had to change the page zip code 9 times *( because it was always preset to ******* **.) BECAUSE THE **** LISTED WERE THERE.This is a TOTAL waste of my time. I could have spent this valuable job searching time, actually seeing jobs that are local to me and i am interested in. Not the c*** like the Doordash, Clinical trials, furthering my education and that s*** I have about had all I will take from your company. After changing the zip code to pull up ***** jobs in my city, there were 2. That *****. You talk a good talk then send me through all kind of unnecessary hoops and wasting my time for 2 jobs that I an mot even interested in.You either need to improve or get a job at Hardees.I DO NOT appreciate this rediculous mess.

    ACG is a scam masquerading as a job board. I applied for jobs on their website and its pop-up h*** Additionally, they advertise jobs as being 18-22$ but when you go to apply its 14$.They immediately sold my email and phone number after interacting with their website and now I cant stop the calls, texts and emails I receive.

    I am deperately seeking employment and every time I see a job that interests me I click on it. As soon as I do, I get sent through a neverending loop through 5 or more other job boards and never get to a point of actually being able to submit an application for the job I was looking at. IM THINKING THEY ARE FRAUDULENT
