Wrong number! Job hotline was sex line
ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) - Looking for work in all the wrong places?

That's what happened to job seekers who dialed a phone number listed on the state's Family Health Administration's Web site - which actually was a phone number for women looking for sex.

The number for the Maryland Job Service Hotline was listed incorrectly on the state Web site, as well as in the Verizon Yellow Pages and other Web sites.

State officials say they are aware of the problem and are working to correct it.

The correct number to call for Maryland Job Services is 1-410-767-2148.
