I was contacted by this company who stated they had received my information from Hilton, who I have a time share with. The representative stated they had been advised that I had unused rooms which I paid for and if I provided the upfront cost of $3100 I would receive approximately $12000 within a few months, being that it was peak season and they had multiple conventions booked which they required these rooms for. I paid the money under the impression that they were associated with Hilton Honors which is a trustworthy business that I have an account with. It’s has been over a year and whenever I call I’m told there are reservations pending and I need to be patient and will receive an email shortly. I have not received a response in months and have not been paid back a single cent of what was owed to me.

I thought I was on the actual hotel website to book directly (two rooms, one night, at $139.00 per room), but the "Reservation Confirmations" came from "hotelvalues.com" and reflected "Resort Fees" and "Tax Recovery Charges and Service Fees" amounting to $220.83. I searched for "hotelvalues.com" but found that it did not exist. I asked the hotel manager to look at the charges. He said that the hotel records showed the booking came from a third party, which was "booking.com." I understand that booking.com is a real website, but I also understand that booking.com becomes a conduit for this fraud, and unless it refuses to be used this way, becomes a co-conspirator to defraud a lot of people. Here is the takeaway: book hotel rooms directly with the hotel, either by phone or making very sure that you are on the hotel website and not a third party site. In my experience, the website I booked through looked exactly like the hotel's website but apparently was not. Never book through a third party provider if at all possible.

I was contacted by Raymond from real estate professionals offering to buy our timeshare in Cabo San Lucas, Solar resort. The offer was over $10k of the total valued paid so I thought it would be legit as they stated I don’t have to pay anything until the sale is done and I get the funds (which would be 5% of the sales totaling around $1900). Premier Land Title was the escrow company involved. I then was shown an account opened up with myself and my husband listed as beneficiaries with Santander in Mexico (branch SUC. LOMAS DE CHAPULTEPEC phone 011 52 55 89 77 15 41 ), with the pre-deposited funds from the buyer Nova Capital Inversionistas w/ Agnes de la Mora( In the amount of $38,900) in a CROSS-BORDER ACCOUNT STATEMENT. I was then asked to pay for a Temporary Tax Identification Number fees ($3,250.88 USD)that the buyer was to reimburse me. Then I get another letter stating the Hacienda SAT required me pay the sales gains tax in advance of $7532 and that the hired attorney that was working for Premier Land Title, LLC (her name is Mariana Alejandra Torres Santos #831693BP shoeing 2013. They sent a picture of her license. They said the buyer would also reimburse me that gains tax, but couldn’t deduct from the sale the gains taxes nor pay on my behalf per Mexican laws. I would have to pay up front and Mexico w[censored]ding my funds on a lien until I pay. I also asked for a copy of my natural citizen paperwork and tax ID number. The documents were signed by Marcelino Miranda Aceves. I requested David Dec’s broker number -which is 73745 and it checked out, but was expiring very soon May 2025 (license in Massachusetts). The website domains were both just created less than a year ago. Then I google mapped the addresses listed on the contracts, and not one of them were listed as registered legal locations for these two businesses. The phone numbers are not registered with these two companies. I reported this scam with my bank, frauds.gov, and the FBI.

Ordered an expedited passport renewal on 11/20/24 through this company out of Puerto Rico who represented itself as a AAA affiliate. Never delivered the product but kept saying it was on the way and I would have it by the time I traveled on 12/12/24. By 12/6/24 I still hadn’t received anything. I asked my bank to stop payment and they credited my credit card. They also had to cancel my card while I was on vacation because of other fraudulent transactions. I incurred an additional $3,500 in cost because I had to leave on vacation 3 days early to obtain a same day passport at the US Passport Agency for which I will be filing in Small Claims Court.

I tried to book 4 airline tickets using fair Porto and received a phone call from them shortly afterward explaining that they were not regular tickets, but instead no personal item no carry-on luggage and no checked bags would be allowed with this fair and it was nonrefundable and then they said that even if I accepted all those restrictions, the outbound flight had been canceled and I would only receive the return flight, but I would have to pay the full round-trip price. I definitely do not recommend anyone ever trying to use this. So-called travel agency.

Thought I was booking through Hilton directly from a pop up window that appeared when I was looking. I booked a room, received a confirmation but a few minutes later, I received another e-mail stating that I cancelled the reservation. I did not. I called in to the number and was told there is a "no refund" policy and they would not refund my money or reinstate my reservation. I am out the cost of the room and still have no where to stay. I have called Hilton directly, and they can not reinstate my reservation and suggested that the third party call Hilton directly and ask for a refund. When I called the third party vendor again, they informed me they would not do that, and then hung up on me. I have tried multiple times to rectify this and always am met with someone who doesn't speak English or is very hard to understand and all of them are unwilling to rectify this.

Why is Lyft allowed to do business? They are con artist, that started a company to avoid anyone suing them due to the fact that they scam people daily and you do nothing about it.

Lyft charged me for a ride that never showed. This company needs to be shut down as this has hapoened a few times. Uber is another one. The US Government needs to do a better there job abd force companies to do as they should. All of these agencies need to be closed or do a better job protecting consumers. You suck.
