Description

Business is advertising as if they are a booking and travel agency, called SVH Travel, posting via LinkedIn and Indeed.I applied for the position as it is work from home and reportedly very well paying. They approved my application, stated there was a required webinar, I attended. Upon arriving in the webinar, the company is actually called "Book With Jacob" (Jacob's last name is never mentioned) The chat room is filled with fake people, the user cannot ask questions to others in the chat. None of the others within the chat are asking critical questions as should be the case considering the business is asking for money rather than actually offering a job. The webinar consists of showing off different cruise lines and travel packages their company offers, but at the end of the discussion they ask for money to begin their OWN travel agency. It appears to be a pyramid scheme.
