Misuse of Employee Info
This auction house got ahold of my phone number and info and has left multiple messages and texts. I replied STOP as prompted and that did stop the texts. However I still get calls and voice mails from this company. They need to stop. I worked for another company the owner had many years ago, and was laid off with a large amount of other employees. I never had his number nor did I give him nasty messages or try to call, I thanked them for the opportunity and went on my way. I assume he took my number from employee records. This is a huge Misuse of our information. I know several other former employees that he is doing this as well, it has been 4-5 years since we have worked for him.
