    Constantly sending spam, has no "unsubscribe" options and still sends spam after repeated requests to delete my info from their records. This is spam because its for jobs, and if they read ANYTHING in my resume they would know the jobs they send have ZERO to do with my field. There are also several records online of others complaining of this same thing.

This organization must cease and desist in any further contact with me and/or my family or I will register a complaint through the **** Organization must purge my personal information from their database.
