Question

Marino Palpak, Eddie Angeles and Jose Berdugo advertised in the Manila Bulletin the following information: “20 Teachers wanted for Egypt. Apply at No. 123 Langit, Manila." Salvacion Inocente applied and was made to pay minimal fees to cover administrative expenses and the cost of her passport and visa. For one reason or another, Salvacion did not get the job and filed a complaint with the POEA. Marino, Eddie and Jose admitted having no license or authority but claimed that they are not covered by the Labor Code since they are not engaged in the recruitment and placement for profit and, at any rate, only one prospective worker was involved. May Marino, Eddie and Jose be prosecuted? If so, for what specific offense/s? (1991 BAR)
