I received an Email from Elev8Events. There website is ************************ on LinkedIn. The webinar that was associated with it was hosted by Edwin. At the end of the webinar for a variety of services I was told to subscribe at $49.00 a month or $339.00 a month. I did nothing except to exit the interview. After the end of the interview I received another email with a link to enroll. I am keeping the emails in a folder for evidence; but not clicking on the link to enroll.

On Monday, June 24, 2024, I notified BWJ by email to cancel my agency agreement with them to preclude a withdrawal of the annual fee schedule for debit from my bank account on July 1, 2024. This morning, July 1, I noticed they ignored my request and withdrew the annual fee anyway. I am a disabled veteran on a limited income and this payment was not in my budget for the month.

I got in contact with BWJ (Book With Jacob) Travel through a job posting on Indeed that was for data entry. They turn out to be a travel agency company (and their actual name (BWJ Travel) was not the job I applied to on Indeed), and offer their services (informational videos, support, booking software, etc.) to help you become a successful travel agent if you become an Independent Contractor (IC) with them. The deal for services was presented to me during a virtual "meet and greet" meeting. The options were a fee of $49 for one month or $396 for one year. On May 16th of this year, during the virtual meeting, I, like many others on the call, paid $49 for one month. At no point in time during the meeting did the coordinator of the meeting, Edvin Sarkisian (goes by Edwin), say this was a recurring subscription that would not cease until canceled.

Further, nowhere in the Independent Contractor Agreement and Terms, which I never signed, is it mentioned that credit card information is stored, saved, and going to be charged on a recurring basis. The only information they provide about fees is that they are "nonrefundable." The agreement also does not make obvious that you are are purchasing an ongoing subscription, especially since it does not explicitly state how to cancel the membership that you are buying. They very clearly want you to believe you are making a one-time payment.

On May 22nd, I texted Edwin (844.968.2892) saying thank you for your time and support but that I have decided travel agency is not for me. Edwin did not respond to my text.

On June 14th, I see a charge on my credit card from BWJ for $49. On June 15th, I text Edwin, Mary (818.698.0981), and Jacob (818.201.4699) that there is another charge of $49 on my credit card that I needed refunded, with no response from any of them. On June 17th, I called Edwin, then Mary, then Jacob. The numbers for Edwin and Mary did not even ring. The number for Jacob went to voicemail. I left Jacob a voicemail restating my issue and that I would appreciate a call back. On the same day (17th), I receive a text message from Mary to speak with her about questions I have. I reiterate to her the circumstances and requested a refund. Her response is that they do not issue refunds because "the moment you pay your membership automatically there are resources that are billed on our end that we pay for that are non-refundable," and that I should fill out a member cancellation form. I told her about how the IC agreement does not make mention of this, and how Edwin did not respond to my text telling me how to prevent future payments on my card, but that I will fill out the cancellation form. She referred me to send an email to [email protected] and that they would help me if they could.

The response in email was the same, that refunds cannot be issued, and explaining to me how a subscription works, as if I should have very obviously known I was purchasing a subscription. That the only way I could avoid future payments is by canceling. I responded by saying this was not stated outright in the IC agreement, nor was it verbally mentioned from Edwin, or by Mary when initially being contacted over the phone.

My issue is not the payment of $49 I made in May, but for the payment that I did not elect to make in June, that was charged to my credit card without my consent or knowledge that this is an ongoing subscription. My requests to speak with management are continually ignored.

This is very clearly a scam.

I was contacted via email, after applying for a remote travel agent position (pretty sure I applied on LinkedIn), by Edwin S (didn't identify his company position or identify anything else about himself). He told me I needed to attend a webinar in order to begin working as a travel agent at BWJ Agents. I attended the 30-minute webinar, and Edwin informed all of the participants that no start-up fees were needed to begin working here, only to later state that we would still need to provide an initial $49/per month fee, or $396/year fee to sign up as a travel agent for BWJ Agents. We were then informed we would receive a text explaining any additional details for this position, and Edwin tried to pressure me into paying the $396 up front. He basically ignored me when I asked to have at least a day to think over the offer. Everything about the interview and Edwin's conversations was very questionable, and someone on Reddit mentioned contacting their leasing office, in Glendale, CA, only to be told they had no record of BWJ Agents there. This is very likely a scam. I want to report this company to prevent others from losing out on a few hundred dollars or even their identity to who I believe are likely criminals.

They're a "travel agent company" that "hires you" and says income can be up to 150-200k/year. I saw a posting for a remote job on linkedin and applied. I was invited to the next step which was a group meeting webinar. A man named Edwin presented the job and at the end invited everyone to become a travel agent with them. IF, you paid them a monthly, yearly, or large upfront one time fee. This would pay for all the training and resources they'd give you to become a great travel agent and earn them commissions as well. They're awful, and praying on people
