I called (877) 220-3185 and told him I could not hear him well. He did call me back & cid came up with the company name. I made some small talk with him, he seemed to know that area of NJ ( I know it extremely well) The road and highway names, even some restaurants in the area.
I’m not sure about this one being a scam. I told him I would stop in and book my trip in person and he seemed fine with it.

Hmm, when I called them up and when I finished the call with revealing that im a scambater, she told me to go to hell, which seems quite unprofessional. But I get what you were saying.

Owner seems to be Amit Goel

I’m checking their claims and logos at the bottom of the page:

  • first logo: they claim to be an IATA Accredited Agent. I could not find any proof for that
  • second logo: Cruise Lines International Association (Verify a Travel Agency Member Tool | CLIA UK). To verify we need an ID which they do not display
  • third logo: CompliAssure Secured. To verify you need to click on it. This is not possible as this is a picture only.
  • fourth logo: American Society of Travel Advisors (ASTA): Public Profile - Dreams Travel & Tours INC They are registered but as a normal member only, not a verified one.

All in all, their claims with the registrations cannot be verified. This looks very shady but could also be the mistake of poor website design. I will contact this company to ask them to provide proof of certification.

They must be somewhat legitimate. I checked them out too. They have a business license in NJ registered In Hudson county, NJ and a valid tax ID#

While I was looking on google maps, I spotted another dreams travel and tour inc, but there weren’t any proper photos of the place, and I can’t find it inside the street view (Both places are circled in red).

There’s also another airline tickets agency in the area (partially circled in green), which also only provides advertisements as their photos on maps.

Going back to Dream/FlightOm, it’s rated 4.1/5 stars, now here’s some 1 star reviews

But the thing is, there’s still quite a few 5 star reviews:

Note that the 5-star reviews use similar language and don’t mention anything in specific (in fact, they usually have no profile picture or a generic profile picture), while the 1-star reviews all use a different tone, word choice, and general language, and go into a large amount of detail.

Good catch! That’s very true.

Really good point, since you never know, it could be the company making the possibly fake reviews

the 202 area code number doesnt seem to be registered to the business in any way…

Another thing that I would like to add, is that they did legitimately book the flight for me (they booked the flight before the payment)

(Just to clarify, Patricia did cancel it when I said that I was a scambater)

That would be something expected for them to do once they knew you were trying to find something on them. If you had given them real CC information, you might find a charge added after the fact, like the 1st person in your image here:
