Reports from individuals nationwide claim the company’s proprietor, Laticha Douglas, accepted payments for trips but did not book the corresponding reservations.

In recent correspondence with clients, the travel agent confessed that her business had shut down, admitting to poor business decisions but insisting there was no intention to defraud.

Complaints can be submitted at Ic3.gov. Additionally, the public can arrange a face-to-face meeting or share details by contacting their nearby FBI Field Office. For those in Chicago, the FBI Field Office can be reached at (312) 421-6700.
