This website asks for your name, birth date, address, e-mail, and cell phone number BEFORE it allows you to look for jobs. Then it texts you a "pin." Once you enter the pin, you get a text saying you have just signed up for an automatically renewing service that costs $9.99 a month.

Then comes multiple spam texts.

I immediately sought out the fine print. I found the limitations of liabilitysection. It basically said any info I gave them would not be kept secure and if someone stole my identity or the like, I could not sue.

Within a minute or two of entering my pin, comes a phone call from what seems to be a local number. It turns out it is from someone who is reading from a script and has a tenuous grip on the English language, who wants to talk to you about "improving your education." This call comes regardless of whether or not you clicked the box asking for a call from an "education specialist."

I said I was uninterested and hung up the phone while the "specialist" protested.

Rather than take any further risk, I immediately texted "STOP" to 34135 to stop the service. Then I got the heck out of there!
