Description
I received a text message saying I had passed the initial resume review, and advanced to the interview stage. I didn't remember applying to this company, but I have applied to quite a lot of places, so figured I could go along with it. After three rounds of interviews, the entire process felt off. Promises of huge salaries and quick promotions, immediate start dates. I still had a bad feeling about it, so did some more digging. The CEO and President is Austin Blake-Smith, and upon searching his name, he is notorious for scamming people into joining this business. He recruits people to recruit others. This is a Pyramid Scheme. His current venture is Blitz-BD, but he has had countless other Names/LLCs, likely changing them for this reason. You can contact/research him at: [email protected] (770) 468-8340 Shut down this predatory practice, and make sure he cannot continue to do so.
