BBB believes the person placing this job ad in local publications and online is operating a scam. The company, whose name is not listed in the ad, advertises a variety of jobs in the Cincinnati, San Diego, Baltimore, Richmond and Chicago market areas. The descriptions of the jobs advertised vary. Previous advertisements called for a Manager of a Luxury Hunting Lodge, a Restaurant Manager or a Property Manager. In the hiring process, job applicants are told they must travel to San Diego, CA for the final job interview. These job applicants are asked to pay for half the cost of the plane ticket by wire transfer. The applicants who have wired the money do not receive a plane ticket and are unable to reach the company to obtain a refund.
The 617-641-8285 telephone number used in some ads is an unpublished telephone number that seems to originate from the Boston, MA area. Another telephone number used by the company, 704-551-7706 is an unpublished Charlotte, NC telephone number. BBB is unable to locate a valid address for the company.
BBB cautions jobseekers against paying money upfront for any potential job. Many times these are not legitimate job offers. The only persons that make money are the ones that place the ad.
