This scam combines multiple different scams (job scam, business coaching) to create a very sophisticated pyramid scheme. The Market Social is a recruiting agency for pyramid schemes. They recruit people in multiple different states (Texas, Philadelphia, Tennessee, Ohio, Wisconsin, Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois) using different business names. They target people who have a public indeed resume and call them even if they have not applied to the job. They initially hire people as "sales associates" or "recruiters" the goal of The market social is to eventually get these individuals to open a "marketing" business under their own name that will then fall under them in the pyramid. The new marketing company will then be coached to do the same exact thing in order to continue the pyramid. Because there is so many different business names this makes the scam nearly undetectable. Each induvial business changes their name frequently in order to target the same individuals multiple times making them believe it is a different employer. Some of these business names include Synaptic Incorporated, Tenacity Solutions, Bleed Green Marketing, Chicago Marketing, Vision Management group, Tier one business solutions, Targeted focus Inc, Synergy Capitol Marketing Group, Southern Event management, Motiv8 Management, Metroplex management group, South Chicago management, Luxe marketing, Premier advanced, True Life Marketing Inc the never ending list continues to grow each day as each business continues "coaching" new individuals to open another marketing business and continue the pyramid. They are all taking out business start up loans and PPP loans and I believe they are also laundering money. The market social is registered in Florida but runs in Illinois.
