    Surely seeing as its a 'Job Advertisement' then these people should be notified: https://www.asa.org.uk/

    Site that hijack a web search on item model number, but then say "This item is currently unavailable. We don't know when it will be available"

    Is there a law or isn't there? I'm confused.

    I see that most (i.e. majority) of the jobs posted in various site like Jobserve are just fake jobs - they don;t exist at all!
    Many agencies have confirmed this to me directly face-to-face on phone calls
    Such a pathetic situation.

    Why the law is not against this?

    It probably is against the data protection act, procuring and storing information with false pretences etc. But the regulator is useless and never enforces really serious stuff so this minor stuff has no chance.

    It's potentially fraudulent. But why do you want a law? You could just not use sites that allow it.

    People cruising, too concerned with using their mobile on the move, who then look annoyed when they almost walk right into you.
