My call from Langston and Associates came from #917-793-6060.  Representativer gave name as Doug Gutierrez at same NY address.  Had date and amount I paid.  I finally hung up without providing any info.  Have had other calls from this number and another since.  I got rid of my time shares by giving them to a relative who wil use them as reselling is a joke.

I got a call from Langston and Associates today telling me that they work with the federal govt. to recover money for the victims of timeshare fraud. and wanted me to pay by check 79.95. garanteeing that I will receive a check for the money I lost within 30-90 days. They refused to take credit card.  I*'m glad I put them off.

Today I received a call from Arieo Gutierrez who relayed most of the information in the posts on this page, representing Langston & Associates, at 304 Park Avenue South, NYC, NY., who said that he could recover checks from two companies who had scammed us for $1,299 and $899 within 90 days. All we had to do was pay court fees of $79.95/month and the checks would be mailed to us. He had all our transaction data from the two previous companies and the dates involved. He turned us over to Alex Rodriguez (from their legal department) to confirm our data. He was in a hurry to get our banking information. (RED FLAG!!!) I put him off...Thankfully!!! Since they called...I've had a chance to read all this stuff about this (reputable???) company...NO THANKS!!! Just goes to show that these people are getting really slick about how they make their presentations SOOOO Believable!!!  
REMEMBER: Protect yourself (and your checkbook) in the clinches!!!

Where to start with this scam. There is a definite link between Langston & Associates and Goliath Recovery.  Langston & Associates uses a prestigious New York Park ave address that is nothing more than a mail forwarding service http://www.davincivirtual.com/loc/us/new-york ... s/facility-701/  Goliath Recovery uses a mail drop in Seminole County Florida (verify by calling 407-665-1000 and give them the business address).  Both will lie to you to get you to give your bank account information.  THE FACTS ARE THIS..........there is no attorney general that uses a private company for the collection or distribution of money (State of Florida AG 850-414-3300)  Don't be mislead and don't give out your bank account information.  Additional numbers connected to this scam are out of India.  Research a company before doing business with them.  Verify their state issued license (if they called you on the phone every state requires them to be licensed), check the BBB.  Web sites can be misleading, not all, but some.  There are some good companies out there that will help you and they will also help you against the 'out and out' scammers.

you are only the second one with a positive result.

are you aying that you received your money back with no problems with your bank account. i am afraid to give free access to my information.

lisa davis from goliath called, left message .called back 20min and asked for  her -left message. she called me back as if she did not know that she called ,could not find my file right away ,explained everything to me . when i said that could not do anything until monday , she said that info she is sending me only good for 48 hrs.  goliath called again 1 hr later but did not leave message. phone number 8772584794.

I want my money back. you have had it for over 3 years. Tell JI Jennings she lied to me. Your company owes me $599.00

Add Lee Cortez to the list of staff from Langston & Associates.

Received a call at my work from Panno at this number. Through his heavy accent and uncertain delivery, I understood that he claimed to be able to get my $500 from a 2009 timeshare advertising scam. I had forgotten about it and he knew the year and the amount right off the bat. My question is - where did they get this info and if they have account numbers - how can they so blatantly rip you off? Somehow the timeshare company was hacked or it was inside information that was sold. So Panno said that for $59.95 I could get my money refunded. I said I was at work and would call him back. I checked out the company online and I found myself here. When they tell you something is too good to be true, - believe that! I always check out deals like this online just by doing a search of the company name, (I do teh same thing about rumors, stories or claims on www.snopes.com ). Last year I got a $1,200 refund from Heartland magazine distributors for false billing and subscriptions I never ordered, but did that through the BBB. Always verify your information independently!

Young lady called and said they were a recovery company, and they had been able to get our
money back that they scammed on us, which amounted to $1,637.00.  I said I don't understand
how this could be, so she said I am just the secretary and I make the calls, but I will put you
through to a representative who can answer your questions.  So I talked to this very, nice gentleman,
and he told me all about the people who scammed us, and that were a recovery company, so they
had our money for us.  So I had to do what they call a DocuSign, which I had no idea what in the
world it was, they e-mailed me this form to fill out, which I hesitated to do anything about for a few
days, and they called back and wondered why I hadn't sent it back, I said I did not understand the
form, since I'd never seen one before.  Oh, I can help you on that.  The agreement was, that they
would send me the money, then in turn we would pay them $100. "after" we received the check.
You get paid then you pay us, no money up front first.  So we thought well, that's better than pay
and pay, and get no where with these Timeshare Scammers.  Unfortunately!!  To my not thinking
fast enough, they need all my bank information so the check could go right into out account, and
it would be about a week.  I took a check in my check book, wrote all the information on the check
so it would be ready to send when our money was in the bank, but it is still in my check book.  We
got our back statements a few days ago, and I was looking for a deposit for $1,637.00, nothing
there, I called our bank and they said no deposits had been made since the statements went out.
On the seventeenth, there was a check for $100.00, I looked at it, but never thought about it, I
figured a bill must have been paid for the amount; but it kept eating away at me Saturday, so I
stopped what I was doing, came down and looked at the check again, ran it through my scanner
to see if I could pull up what it said on the back better.  They had made up their own check, sent
it in, and it said "No Signature Required", RED FLAG!!!,  we'd had this happen to us about two years ago on another Timeshare deal, and the bank caught it, and they sent the check right back, and the
people had to put the money back in out account.  My e-mail is what I have and it says: "Goliath
Recovery via DocuSign"<dse@docusign.net>  Attach: Goliath Recovery Agreemenet.pdf
Well, I called my bank right away this morning, but have notd heard back.  I tried to open the pdf
file, but my computer came up with, if I open this, it could harm my computer, so I left it alone.  I
did all kinds of web searching, nothing.  Then I  had an e-mail on this number, but I did not have a
number for them, so I kept reading all these letters, and ran across Scam 16 February 2012, and
saw the company name, read it, and decided to type one in myself.
FOLKS THERE ARE SO MANY TIMESHARE SCAMMERS OUT THERE THAT SOUND LIKE THEY
ARE JUST LIKE FAMILY TO YOU, AND YOU CAN TRUST THEM FOR ANYTHING!  WRONG!!!!
HANG UP OR JUST SAY YOU SOLD IT ALREADY AND HANG UP!!!!  
We just got severly scammed by a company, and this looks like a run off of that company.

Caller stated he represented Langiston & Associates who were being paid by the federal government to get people their money back from fraudulent company's offering to sell your time share. Said they are investigating REM and that they froze thier bank account. Had all of my information from 2008.   This guy said his name was Aaron based out of 304 park ave. south 11th floor, manhattan, new york, 10010 phone # 718-374-6040 fax 917-477-0041. Said to give a toll free number 877-886-0568 to anyone that called me to try and sell my TS. This guys transfers me to the legal dept to verify my info. says the only cost is 59.95, meantime while he is talking i got to thier website and looks kind of strange. I go to click the our lawyers link and it doesnt work. I asked the guy on the phone why doesnt his website work, and he has no answer. I said this sounds like a scam and he got real quiet. I said once you get your website to work call me back, he told me you have my number call me if you change your mind.

And to those that are replying that you got your money back, you are BS.

Its all a scam don't deal with any of these recovery companies there are as big as scam as the timeshare resale company. Its in f****ng believable that people believe these scams even though they have paid multiple companys. If you would like some free information regarding this matter call me at 877 741 7919 next 108

I received a phone call from a man identifying himself as Carlos Sanchez from Langson and Associates.  He said his company had gained access to a bank account of a time share marketing company, and that his company was assisting people who had paid monies to the marketing company to sell their timeshares and had been defrauded.  He said that, for a recurring monthly charge of $59.99, his company would assist me in recovering the money I paid.  He advised that it would take one to four months to process my claim.  He provided the following information regarding his company:
Langston and Associates, 304 Park Avenue South, 11th Floor, Manhattan, NY  10010
Website:  langstonandassociates.com
He also advised that his company is rated A+ with the Better Business Bureau.  I advised him I was not interested and to please remove me from their call list.
A check on the BBB website shows Langston and Associates is not actually acredited with the BBB, and currently has an "F" rating:
http://www.bbb.org/NYC/business-reviews/legal ... york-ny-132412/
A letter from the BBB demanding that Langston cease and desist it's false claims to be BBB acredited on its website was returned by the post office as undeliverable.
BEWARE OF THIS COMPANY!

Looking for the owner info!

Folks, this sounds like a scam where you pay $X up front to get $thousands of your money that's been recovered by the Feds. Your $X will be gone and you'll never see your $thousands. The Feds do NOT charge, nor will they engage a company that will charge you to get your recovered money back to you.

I spent all this money trying to get rid of my timeshare. $2598 to be exact, I received a call from both companies as well. I had already gone through with Goliath Recovery, and received my money in 1 week. Everything went through as said! I couldn't be happier!

*Personal note: I went to try and find out information on Langston & Associates who said they were working on behalf of the government but there are no records anywhere that show they work with the government.

Got a call from a man calling himself Alex Rodriques that represents Langston & Associates about some money  that was own to me from a time share recovery and the company works with the govt to return it back to the victims.All I had to give him was my bank account so they can charge me only $ 59.95 to verify my account.  Then I got another call, only this time it was a woman named Cynthia Owens from Goliath Recovery Solutions, Inc 4250 Alafaya Trail Ste 155 Oviedo, FL 32765 @1-877-643-6247 or 1-877-258-4794. claiming they had recovered money from time share, they sent me an email containing paper work to be sign from a company called Docu Sign.. For a $100 fee they would deposit the money into my account.   I then called Langston & Associates to verify this information .  I was unable to reach a live person and  left a message.  To my suprise I have not received a call back.  ha ha!

Actually i had a better experience i spoke to Alex Rodriguez and i went with through the process with him ,it didn't even take a month to recover $2256.00 dollars and im now going away on a vacation hope i don't have to go to another timeshare experience ever again .Every call that i receive from a timeshare company ill just give them the toll free number to langston and they will do  the research on that company thank you.

recieved a call from tierra scott from gollath recovery solutions 4250 Alafaya trail ste 155 oviedo Fl, 32765 phone # 1-888-407-5916 on 2-10-2012.asked for $100.00 to get the $1450.00 returned from resale time share company. on 2-21-2012 recieved a call for Langston $ Associates, james cummingham stating he can get the $1450.00 returned to me for paper work fee of $59.95 based out of 304 park ave. south 11th floor, manhattan, new york, 10010 phone # 718-374-6040 ext. 1003.on 2-15-2012 I was able to contact gollath and was told irt would be a couple more days and the check would be transfered if not give them a call. I've tryed on 2-21-2012 3times and all reps are busy they'll return my call. haven't heard yet.

Got a call from a man calling himself Alex Rodriques that represents Langston & Associates about some money in the amount of $2153 that was own to me from a time share recovery and the company works with the govt to return it back to the victims.All I had to give him was my bank account so they can charge me only $ 59.95 to verify my account and they will send me some paper work so they can direct depsit that amout of $2153 to my account. Before this 2nd call, I got another, only this time it was a woman same thing but this time she send me an email containing paper work to be sign from a company called Docu Sign, only the  name is different it was called Goliath Recovery Solutions, Inc 4250 Alafaya Trail Ste 155 Oviedo, Fl 32765 1-877 258-4794 and it did not work with the govt. Web site www.goliathrecovery.com email goliathrecovery@gmail.com. Checked it out and it was a real simple web site  and that it's produces were of highest quality, apart from recovering funds it also provided some service thu it never showed what products it severed. Also the fee was $100 wow the 2nd call gave you a discount.I haven't received a call from the 1st caller. So it looks like they changed thier name and location from Florida to New York and claim to be a big time law firm address 304 Park Ave South 11th Floor Manhattan, New York 10010 718-374-6040

Caller stated he represented Langston & Associates. Found no BBB listing and discovered that their office is a virtual office from Davinci. Their web site consists of 3 static pages which does not substantiate that this is a real company. There is nothing to convince me that the multi-million dollar business they described Langston as is any more than a 2-person business.

Caller stated he represented Langiston & Associates who were being paid by the federal government to get people their money back from fraudulent company's offering to sell your time share.  On substantial internet research I found no listing with the bbb and the phone number to be registered with a high end car rent agency in New York.

Caller said he was representing people who were upset with timeshare resale companies.. Informed him I was on do not call register and was not interested. He said he would call back later.
