My langue is Pomposity!

What langue do you speak my dear?

Been getting this number on my CID for the last 2 days.  They leave no message.  I don't recognize the number, so I don't answer.  If they don't have the courtesy to leave a message then I definitely will NOT answer. Best way to handle these calls is don't answer it.  If you don't recognize the #, it's probably someone you don't want to talk to anyway.  If they don't leave a VM, it must not be important.  This # will go on my Block lis.

Got a random call. Thank god for caller I.D. Was able to screen and didn't answer. After reading these posts I'm sure glad I didn't answer!

We fell for this scam in 2011 when we agreed to sell 4 weeks of our timeshare weeks at $199/week. The original person that we were in contact with seemed very legitimate. He appeared to have valid info, was easy to understand  and even returned calls on occasion until he suddenly didn't work there any more. After that almost everyone else that we spoke with spoke in broken English and obviously was reading from a script. "Tanya Edward" was one people who's spoke with on a consistent basis and definitely lacked professionalism. When we opted out of the deal, which they always reminded us that it was an option, we never received our refund. We were going through a very stressful time in our lives and had to cut our losses. I am hoping that this scam is no longer happening, but just in case I wanted to share my story (in a very small nutshell.)

Same call, same number as listed above...wanting to get weeks to exchange. Could not commit to any legal paperwork and kept repeating themselves.

[This post has been removed]

JACOB SAWYER is one of them.. he is the TRAINER for that campaign, he is the one who wrote down all the scripts, rebuttals and the TIMESHARE AGREEMENT.. That's why he knows everything for that company, he worked there for years. he was fired for the company because of his attitude problem, also he is the one who wrote the blog under the name of JOE JOESTER. The reason why he put a blog for this is because he wanted a revenge against the management who fired him. He is the former TOP SELLER for that company averaging 30 weeks in a day. $199 x 30 = $5970 that was the total money he collects daily, what if for a week?  how much was it??

I've worked for that company before, and he is the one who fired me without any reason.
Hemanaged his rules in a personal things..

i know that place! ive been there before in ortigas, and they are totally SCAM!!! im going to report them to the police!

A timeshare scam company that calls themselves 'Global Travel Services' operates out of Ortigas Center, Metro Manila - Philippines.  The real name of the registered company with the Philippine SEC is called "Uni Asia."  It is owned in part by 3 ladies, one of which is

Kay Ann Santos, another is Janice Alcala, and the 3rd is Eileen C. Salita.  

The address is 3104 Tektite Tower East Building.  The hours of operation are local time Philippines: 9pm-12 noon the next day.  They call USA East-West coast throughout all the business hours.

The company is REALLY owned by an American from Colorado who calls himself Vincent Kahn. (pronounced Con  - Scam owner #1) and George A Krizan (Scam owner #2).  

Vincent Kahn lived in Mexico and the Dominican Republic and ran his call center scheme there while doing other "real" timeshare sales activities while being arrested for having 10,000 illegal leads (phone #'s with names/addresses used to illegally call people).  

Vincent Kahn apparently escaped from Dominican Republic via boat and got to Haiti, then flew back to USA before running away to Asia in the Philippines.  He now lives in General Trias, Cavite and is an avid golfer, spending most of his time smoking marijuana

and having unprotected sex with hundreds of underaged girls.

He is the one that brings in the cash twice a week and illegally pays everyone off the books so that he can always keep himself separate and keep the 3 unknowing ladies in full responsibility if anything were to go wrong, which it will eventually, as with all scams.

This so called Global Travel Services (made up name that can change any time) claims that they have a group that is interested in renting your timeshare for up to $3600 per week for any weeks that you have available.  They claim to work with a partner company

called Universal Exchange who is a wholesaler so you've never heard of them and they cant be contacted on the web or on the phone (give me a break).  People believe this stuff so be careful.  The company itself is simply a boiler room with no real services except

people talking.

They say that you can either use YOUR exchange company like RCI/II and do the exchange that way, but in the end they will force you  to use their exchange company Universal Exchange because the hotel that they claim to be renting for "The Hyatt/Regency or the

Mariott Hotel" are not even timeshare companies, so OF COURSE RCI CANNOT EXCHANGE.  So they will have either tricked you into using "Universal Exchange" which doesnt exist, or some of them will straight up tell you that you need to use Universal anyway.

Then, after you do your checking or if they can just scam you right away on the first call, you will give your credit card information to them so they can do what they call "pass it on the to exchange company so they can exchange your timeshare to the location

which is in Cancun Mexico."

THERE IS NO CONVENTION IN CANCUN MEXICO FOR ANY DOCTORS, LAWYERS, OR ANY GROUP.

The $199 is charged by a random credit card processor who is based in the USA (the company goes through 10 processors a week if not more) because everyone is always cancelling and even the processors know they are doing illegitimate processes, thats why if you

rent more than 1 week from this group, your billing statement will show random companies around the USA charging you.  (this is not typical of decent rental companies).

Plus, there is no contract.  And on top of all that, they will tell you that a 3rd party verification company will confirm things with you and record it.  THATS FOR THEIR BENEFIT NOT YOURS.  All they ask you is that you authorize to charge the card for some multiple

of $199.   THATS IT.  They NEVER mention TIMESHARE during the verification because if they did, then the charge is obviously not valid since they are not even a timeshare company in any sort of a way.  So the verification is done just to verify that you screw

yourself.

Please be careful of this scam guys, the phone #'s for this company that claims to be in Las Vegas NV are as follows:
702 514 3430      or    702 514 3431

Here is the breakdown of the scheme:

Owner of the account:  Vincent Kahn
Owner of 2nd branch office/employees:  George A. Krizan
Owner of the company as per the documentation: Kay ann Santos, Janice Alcala, Eileen Salita

Employees (real names):
Shirley Comia (scam sales)
Jenny Borja (scam sales)
Maureen Marino (scam sales Team Leader)
Aejay Sto. Domingo (scam sales)
Michelle (customer service)
Edward Artita (Tanya Edwards) (customer service)


Again, this operation (along with many others) are being done out of the notoriously unregulated telephone lines of the Philippines.  Most of these people are poor and could care less that they are ripping off poor widowed, retired American people who worked

hard all their life to earn their money.

Please let this scam and all the timeshare scams be known.  THE MARKET IS NOT GOOD. PEOPLE ARE NOT BUYING/RENT ANY TIMESHARE!!!!!!!!!!!  The typical person who gets scammed and tricked are usually widowed, retired, older people who own timeshares and

cant afford to pay their maintenance fees or for some reason dont use the timeshare like they used to and would love to turn a profit on a losing asset.

Heres the kicker (MOST PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN SCAMMED BY SOMEONE ELSE WILL EASILY GET SCAMMED AGAIN)

Here is the last bit of evidence I have that will also make you laugh. Its the scam website, poorly designed by George Krizan himself.  It has the word Carribean spelled incorrectly [carrabean] (any company really operating out of that region would obviously know

the real spelling for that). And the website is just a bunch of 'rebuttals' that the scam callers use, and now theyre just printed on the website.  I call this, evidence.  The website (for your entertainment purposes is located at):

I got a call today.. Was surprised to get my number.. Same story as was told above by Irish.. They said to look at  globaltravelservice.net and the website is in Indiana and has a warning on the page.  I asked for their addresa and they gave 848 n. rainbow Island, las vegas and I checked with BBB and this address is coming up as Sierra rentals and resales.which has an F rating with BBB.   Too bad I am a FIlipino and I am sad that they tried to pull one on me after I told them that i was Filipino myself.. Thank God too that I checked it out first.. Oh well

Just got a call from my mother that a company wants to rent her timeshare for her. She is now conditioned that any call related to her Timeshare is a SCAM!  So she pawns the investigative work on to me...

<b> Global Travel Services </b> is attempting to rent a week in Cancun Mexico at the Hyatt or Marriott properties and they have $3,600 to offer you for the week. They've been contracted by the <b> Masean Group of Medical Professionals </b> to obtain 140 weeks of timeshares by the end of this week for a medical conference in November, and they only need another 25 weeks.  That's why they are calling you.

I spoke with a lady that has a very heavy Filipino accent. The phone number given is a Cell Phone apparently in Jean, NV (roughly 26 miles south of Las Vegas).  This cell phone is apparently being forwarded to another number... the VoIP line it forwards is extremely poor quality, so it sounds like it is being sent over seas.

Oh, another thing, they have you call the phone number and ask for a person (Connie, Cindy, Bobby, etc)... when you subsequently call and give them the name, that most likely indicates which scam to run.

Folks... THIS IS A SCAM!

There are a couple of ways that they can make money on this....
1) you use their Universal Exchange company for $199 fee  (that's the quickest buck for them to make)
2) you use Interval International or RCI to make the exchange and give them the exchange confirmation number... they then call Interval or RCI and say they received this as a gift from you and have decided to go elsewhere and now change the reservation and sell it to someone else.

Did you check with RCI? I just got the call also.

got the same call today...have you called RCI

wanted to use my points or weeks in RCI for convention in cancun
