Job Search Question - Resolved, With a Warning

Okay, job search question: what IS this "CBC Media Group" that claims to have gotten my resumé off of Indeed? (And why couldn't I find their company name or reference to any application for a "Customer Service Representative" in my job search diary? I try to be vigilant about this stuff.)

I did a web search. There's a *.com website with their name on it. When I click on a link, I get a browser warning about their website's security. I don't remember hearing about this company before, and today they e-mail me and phone me on my cellphone out of the blue.

Also noting: when I asked the guy on the phone when they'd gotten my resumé/application, he couldn't/wouldn't tell me. So I told them "no" then and there.

Apparently, this is a boiler room.

Also, check this out, thanks to a friend elsewhere:

Horrible that they are preying on people in need.
