I made the mistake of answering a number I did not recognize one day. On the other end was a jobot recruiter.

I chalked it up to fate and went ahead and talked to him and then agreed to hear the company out.

He sent me the details next day and I realized it wasn't for me. So I canceled the interview.

What transpired next was shocking. This dude lost it and texted me over and over for an entire week claiming I had destroyed his reputation. He was going to lose his job. How dare I do this to him and demanded I take the interview or else.

I seriously thought he was going to show up at my house and kill me or something.

i see it around, i assume it's a scam. ymmv.
