Description
Received a response stating my application had been received and I was required to attend a meeting with HR regarding company, position and pay. Meeting link sent via email from "Edwin". Meeting began and the company name presented was different "Book with Jacob" & "SVH Travel". The job described did not match the job listing on LinkedIn - it was to become a travel agent (to do this you needed to pay an upfront "discounted fee" and a monthly fee to follow. Chat contributors did not seem real and the host (Edwin) and presumed founder (Jacob) did not disclose last names.
