Summer Resort Marketing—John Reid License # TK14596- Summit Resort Marketing
On January 8/09 I received an unsolicited call from John Reid of Summer Resort Marketing. 1-877-264-4232 ext.- 250
He asked if I wanted to sell my Timeshare in Velas Vallarta, Puerto Vallarta. I told him that Global Timeshare Sales had it sold, but it seemed to be taking a very long time for them to send me the documents and the money.
He told me that they were scammers and that they could not sell it as they did not even have a broker on staff. He said if a property was sold, it would only take 2 weeks for the documentation.
He also said that he goes to the resorts & talks to people who have been to a presentation, but did not purchase. Many did not purchase because going thru the resort, the interest rates were very high, whereas his company provided the loans at a much lower rate, so they are able to sell the properties.
He said that my property had been referred to him by Velas Vallarta, since I wanted it sold & he had people that were interested. He also said that financing had been approved for them. I told him I could not pay any money up-front & he said all I had to do was assign a VOID cheque to indicate that I could pay the fee & send it after I received my money.
Then when he realized I lived in Canada, he said I would have to wire the money to their account in the Silverton Bank in Georgia. I asked for proof of the sale but he said that due to the privacy law he was unable to provide the sellers information. He also told me he believes in God!!!
He told me to remember the Property Docket #54684622 as it was now assigned to the new owners.
I wired $2,975.00 to the Silverton Bank in Atlanta, Georgia for credit of Summer Resort Marketing 7811 South Orange Blossoms Tr. Ste 300, Orlando, Florida, USA 32809 acc. # 1006311563. They received the money on Jan. 21/09 and since then, John Reid refuses to talk to me or return my calls. The receptionist said she would get someone from Customer Service to call me, but no one has.
They closed their Silverton Bank Account as soon as they got my money and apparently changed their name to Summit Resort Marketing.
John Reid is the last one to have scammed me, and this now makes $20,000.00 that the fraudulent timeshare resellers in Florida & Las Vegas, NV have stolen from me.
I have now found the contact information to send reports to the Attorney Generals, Consumer Protection and Consumer Fraud. I also plan on sending copies to the President and his wife so that they know how these thieves are hurting so many people and stop the EPIDEMIC of the DISEASE called FRAUDULENT Timeshare Resellers.
