This woman, was literally saying "I'll phone up these guys now and we'll get an interview for you, I just need to know where you've interviewed before"

Just say GCHQ, but I'm not allowed to talk about it

I've certainly paid a girl £190 for five minutes work. Actually about 30 seconds.

Only took the ex 2 seconds to say "I Do" - cost me bloody thousands!

Sorry, I'm not used to these sort of tricks that recruiters play. I hadn't read about them before. I had seen some tricks, but this one is new to me. Some recruiters over here seem to be the lowest of the low. I did spot it though and stopped short of giving the details.

These guys should be named and shamed really, they're just timewasters...
