receiving emails from jobs that I never applied for

I am currently receiving multiple emails from the same recruiter about a job that I never applied for, stating that I was unsuccessful. It comes from this email: HRPRD01@bt.com The company seems to be from BT but I am sure I never applied for BT as I keep a list of all the jobs I have applied for. The last time I applied for a job was back in January 2011. Does anyone know who the people are who are emailing me? I am sure its not BT. I have received many emails from them. Thanks

  • Does make me wonder if it's a scam email or phishing email - if you've not applied for it, just mark it as junk so it goes into the right filter.

    Isn't @bt.com just a provider email, you know, like @aol.com, @hotmail.com etc? Therefore I'd spam it and ignore it.
  • I'd also say spam.

    Have you uploaded your CV to any recruitment websites? You know the one's that allow you to create a profile and be searchable and so on.

    Thank you all so much for your replies. I have taken your advice and spammed the email address. I have uploaded my CV online but have not made it searchable for recruiters to see. My CV is uploaded in Reed, jobsite and totaljobs.
