I think this is largely the point, this data is absolutely scraped but the people posting want to be found.
Yeah, I understand the surface-level reasoning. But to me the risk-to-reward ratio is a bit off. Resumes have very personal info on them. It’s also well known that engineers are wealthy. I could see something like this being used to generate a portfolio of high-quality, high-income targets for scams.
