You’ve been getting texts that say a resume is on file and ask if you’re still looking for a promotion. Those messages often come from recruiting firms that use separate numbers for SMS and follow‑up calls. While some outreach can be genuine, the lack of clear identification makes it easy for scammers to harvest personal info. Before replying, verify the company’s website, search the phone numbers online, and ask for a corporate email address. Protect your privacy by limiting what you share, using a dedicated secondary number for job searches, and opting out of unknown text lists. If the sender refuses to provide verifiable details, treat the contact as suspicious.
