Johannesburg–Young adults attending Sexpo 2015 had their eyes opened after they responded so favorably to job offers made at a booth promoting a new energy drink called Whipped.  Those managing the booth said they were searching for staff to manage other such booths around the world.  It appeared to be a dream job with a great salary and expenses paid.  A chance to see the world.  Just minutes after applying for the job, giving all their personal info, the applicants received the text message.  One young woman said: “I couldn’t believe how easy it was to be trafficked. I will be vigilant about giving my personal details and accepting opportunities that seem too good to be true.
Chip in and help end modern slavery once and for all.
