I saw another article earlier today about some firm that does ongoing employee surveillance at a cost of about $1.00 per employee - may have been these guys - don't remember where I saw it.

Thanks for the link -- that was the story I saw.

Are there any unions or other workers groups going after these people?

Can't imagine how. Somehow I don't think a grievance that begins with "I know my resume was a complete lie and you would never have interviewed me, let alone hired me, if I told the truth ..." will get very far.
