The linkedin account removal and the f BBB rating along with these reviews make me suspect Mike too much to trust.

This is an awful human being preying on the unemployed, not a legitimate recruiter!
Great to know this is a scam. I’ve received the same email as a lot of reviewers here.
I just reported his LinkedIn.
There’s a special place for people like this.
Good luck to the rest of you good people who are honestly looking for employment to support you and your families!

Yeah right. I live in Denver dude. Leave me alone already!

Interesting. This guy called me then sent me a link to the website. I get emails that say «Employers have posted some great new jobs today. Here is a list of positions that best match your background and location.». I’ll have to do some research on this.

I received the same email:

So BOGUS. I’ve removed myself from his email list so many times now.

A job offer in my Spam Folder? Red flag # 1.
Linkedin profile no longer exists? Red flag #2.
Dozens of bad reviews here on Unilocal?Red flag #3.
NO FREAKING THANKS.

I received the same email and when I went to the link, all of the jobs posted were jobs I have no experience for (I’m a legal secretary, the jobs were all nurse coordinator). Also, I’m looking for a job in Hawaii — how does this guy in Chicago have jobs in Hawaii?

I’m not gonna attach nefarious intent as of yet. I «linkedIn» him and he is listed as a business. It seems he is more 1 on 1 with his clients, but his intro email leaves a lot to be desired and seems «spammy.» I can’t be 100% sure. I will pass on this one.
(Edited to remove website address and phone #.)

Got the same email through spam and thought it was very weird glad I’m such a good « Unilocaler» & did my research first!
Thanks for the reviews !!!

Be careful if you get an email from this outfit… at best it’s a scam, but could also be a phfishing attempt. I have been getting emails from a «Mike McCarthy» frequently after posting my resume on CareerBuilder.

I received this same email and I am so glad I researched before responding.
Thanks for the heads up!

I received the same e-​mail, decided to do a search on him and found all of you. Checked his LinkedIn website and it is bogus! Glad I looked first! Good luck to you all!

What a steaming pile, do not be fooled, this guys is looking to make money for nothing, here is his newest scam letter:

Bogus phishing email. Reporting this to linkedin!
Dear…
I reviewed your resume and believe that you may be a perfect fit for a program to assist you in finding your new position faster. If you’d be interested in learning more please send me the most updated copy of your resume along with the compensation plan you’d be looking for in a new role and we can set up a meeting.
Also, what’s the best phone number and time to give you a call ?
I look forward to hearing from you. Once again please let me know the compensation range you require as this is not listed on your resume and will help me put you in touch with the best person.
Regards,
Mike McCarthy

Preying on the Unemployed
I received a phishing e-​mail from Mike McCarthy at McSourcer claiming that my resume had been referred to him. It took me to a webpage to register. Their website doesn’t appear to be typical for a legitimate recruiter, no jobs are posted for candidates to view. On further investigation it appears that there are numerous complaints of phishing, so stay away.
