Checkr pulled my driving record even though I never applied for a job, never authorized a background check, and haven’t been employed in years due to disability. I received an official notice from my state DOT showing that Checkr (under a different name/address) requested my information without my consent. That is a serious red flag.After researching, I found countless complaints of Checkr mixing up identities, sending incorrect records to employers, and causing people to lose opportunities due to their sloppy matching system. It’s beyond concerning that they can access sensitive information with no verification and no transparency.Checkr desperately needs regulation, accountability, and a consent-based verification system. People’s identities are not toys. Their system is careless, their practices are questionable, and their impact on people’s lives is unacceptable.
