May 2009 UPDATE: Some people have recently reported receiving recruitment emails from a source using our name.
The sender of the email claims to be a Macy's representative responding to a resume received for a customer service
position advertised on Craigslist. The email then offers a job as an Accounts Receivable Manager (ARM) for Macy's.
Be aware that this is not an email from, nor related to, Macy's and we recommend that you do not respond.
