If you respond to an ad like this one...

YOU COULD GET
SCAMMED!!!

EZ Travels is not a real company. The EZ Travels opportunity to which you responded is a fake, posted by the Federal Trade Commission to highlight the hazards of travel agent credential fraud on the Internet.

DON'T FALL FOR TRAVEL AGENT CREDENTIAL FRAUD

• Travel business opportunities like EZ Travels' are neither easy to operate nor generally profitable.

• Fraudulent travel agent identification cards generally don't qualify users for discounts and upgrades. They pump up the cost of travel for the public-at-large, and they deprive legitimate travel agents of limited available incentives and rewards.

BEFORE YOU INVEST...

• Check to make sure the business opportunity is in compliance with applicable state registration laws

• Research the industry and the market, and talk to current investors
