The founder of this so-called travel agency is posting ads on Indeed, Craigslist, and social media promising up to $40 dollars and hour for a customer service and data entry job.
You're invited to a group interview online, and this total fraud wastes an hour of your time spinning an elaborate tale of how his father built this agency, and how they work with celebrities. He said everyone in the group interview was being offered a job and he started in with how much many we would all be making. Then out of nowhere, he said we could only work for his agency if we had "Errors and Ommisions" Insurance. The next the I know, there is a form on my screen to input credit card information for the insurance for $97 dollars.
When I input travel, Jacob, and employment scam, I was surprised to find it everywhere on the internet. Multiple threads on Reddit, Quora, Better Business Bureau, and he has videos all over TicToc. It's like the whole world is talking about this scammer, so why is he still able to do this?! I turned him in to the FBI.

SCAM
SCAM , Jacob(founder) advertises the job as DATA entry. At the end of the pitch, you have to provide your debit card information.
A total waste of an hour of my time.

Spoke with Jacob at a group interview basically number that was provided no answer just an answer machine. Never had anyone reach out from the team I paid 97 dollars but lesson learned

I'm SOOOO Glad for TrustPilot!
I'm SOOOO Glad for TrustPilot!
I just went through this "class". I noticed too many red flags.
1) Never called my name, even though I would answer first on many of the questions.
2) The background of the speaker was generated. This is HUGE red flag to me, he could be anywhere on Earth. I've taken many interviews in life, people usually don't like generated backgrounds, looks too fishy.
3) The other "people" were not real. They gave canned answers, without many misspellings too fast. Most people in chat rooms misspell a lot, and often.
4) Not once did he say "this is a commission job". The initial ad gave a dollar amount ($27/hr) - This was the bait.
5) Then the "boom" at the end. The "call to action", the link for the "Errors & Omissions Insurance" for a round $97/monthly. The page looked somewhat professional, but no contract, nothing was shown to me about a position being offered. And the best part? The "Jacob" character asks for the "Code Number" that would be generated after a person made the payment. Some came back within less then a minute. Some stated "they were looking for their wallet". This is the "FOMO to push" the unsuspecting viewer that sees others making the leap that they would want to make the leap too... But this was a room full of bots. Not people. It just was too good to be true. The "Jacob" character states that the first Year Average of the "Consultants" was $170k , and after Performance Review they give a 35% raise. From someone who knows numbers and how money works... I smelled the scam now.
6) Not ONCE did he mention the company name. My alarm bells went into overdrive from all of these points.
While on the video call, I start doing some digging. "Jacob", BWJ Travel... Glendale, CA... Click around the site, some things are just off. And then I get to these reviews on TrustPilot. Thank you to everyone who left a post, I might not have been convinced this was scam in total without it.
DO NOT BUY. DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR INFO, DEBIT/CREDIT CARD NUMBER. I learned about this on FaceBook. FB, an American company is facilitating a employment scam. You can NOT trust the social media sites to vet their advertisers. They get paid to help scam the user, so its in their best interest to keep the scam running and alive.
Be safe out there you all.

This company is a complete and total scam
This company is a complete and total scam.
This company is bwjagents, bwj travel, book with jacob.
Webinar showed picture of building in LA. They also advertise in Glendale at 1731 Glenoaks Blvd and 468 Camden Drive, Beverly Hills. I sat through a 90 minutes presentation. They asked for $97.00 for travel agent certificate. Then I was asked to attend a second webinar for a company meeting. As it turns out this was a repeat of the 90 minute previous meeting. It is not live. I asked in the chat about their BBB rating and no one responded which was surprising. After playing further attention. It seems the folks listed in this webinar are not really there, just ghosts. I asked again about the possibility of this being a scam. It did not send up red flags to anyone in the webinar. My concerns were not addressed.
Made report to BBB and will file complaints with other agencies.
Please think twice about dealing with this company. They are asking for money monthly and you get nothing. They advertise $170,000 yearly salary. This is scam.

So far so good
So far so good. Leads are coming and I am looking forward to closing soon.
The company is legit but average people look it at as a job
This is an independent contractor business

$97 a month E&O insurance
Just joined a few days ago. So far the training is good. Im learning alot. I do want to clarify the $97 monthly cost is for Errors & Omission insurance. Had to have that also in my Life Insurance business. That is legit & Jacob explained this in the meeting. People saying “its a scam” based solely on this probably have never had to get E&O insurance ever before & don’t understand its purpose. Yes its monthly, as most insurance premiums are. Will give this 6 months before deciding if its worth it for me, but so far, so good. Only 3 stars bc I literally just started.

Not a scam
Not a scam. I have actual receipts that this is a legit company. Had to really dig to connect the dots to see if this was a real gig but it all checks out and links up. Just got done with my training everything is professional. I even had a contract to sign at the end. and the $100 is for membership to basically use their leads to turn into your clients. The 30 years experience is probably a combo of their dad’s company years in business and their own experience. They ask upfront to make sure you’re serious about this opportunity. It’s definitely there to make money and be your own boss as independent contractor. Do your homework and research before saying it’s a scam.
