"I have sneaking suspicion that Sirius targeted subscribers who HAD NOT payed the additional fee for the privilege of online listening with the "temporarily unavailable" crap."
"@Fresh-Fest-1986:
My situation was a little different- but I have seen ads for the type of scam your brother-in-law is talking about on craigslist.org.
I was asked to pay a set-up fee upfront that would expedite the application process b/c the scammer claimed he would use his connections in the business (hospitality and food service) to get my resume to HR people he knew who were looking for talent.
Regarding the last paragraph of your message- I have notified the the GM of the hotel where I was scammed and explained my story."
"As a victim of a recent headhunter scam- I feel foolish and embarrassed because I consider myself somewhat intelligent and I am usually able to preform my own smell test in these types of situations."
