I searched for jobs on Indeed, and the next day I received a job offer through the Telegram app. However, I had only browsed job postings — I never actually applied. This means my phone number was shared without my consent, and someone messaged me directly. This raises serious concerns about data privacy and the protection of personal information. My number may have been shared with others as well, and I don’t know how to stop this from happening. I urgently request help regarding this matter.
