best way to tell about a scam

Hi I would like to know best way to vocalize a new scam which needs to be stopped. I tried to sell my timeshare last year through company in Georgia - mytimeshareservices.com. They charged $1995 upfront with a guaranteed sale. Oh well that didn't work so I was able to recoup- God Bless Discover card. Well to make long story short I got tired of scams and losing money so I stopped paying the resort. They put me in collections and coincidently the same day that they called me so did JOHN LEWIS from Timeshare services. He said he had my check that the sale went through Frank _____ buyer (sorry forgot name). They needed my final payment $500 on greendot money pak as they are not accepting credit cards. Well desperate to get out of this mess I did it. They gave me phoney fedx number and emptied my card. These guys stole the files from mytimeshareservices. John Lewis 7703477681 uses a magic jack phone. He has accomplices Anthony LaPierre @ Pacific Timeshare. 619-9068671. These guys are con-artists and there are warrants out for their arrest.

Any ideas on how to spread word

Fool me once it's your fault .... fool me twice it's my fault. The fact that they didn't ask for your credit card number and they wanted you to send the $500 by something called greendot money pak should have raised a red flag with you (in other words they don't take credit cards because credit card purchases can be cancelled).

What you should have done instead of stop paying maintenance fees was to list your timeshare for free in the bargain basements of both Redweek and Tug and on Ebay for $1. It would have cost you a lot less.

BTW, the Georgia attorney general is very good about going after scammers .... you need to file a complaint with him. You can find contact info by googling ..... you can file your complaint online. I filed a complaint against a company in GA once and it was immediately taken care of by the AG's office.

Just for the record, I know that My Timeshare Services is NOT really located in Dahlonega Georgia as they claim. There is a company in Georgia that they proclaim to be but they are not. In fact their merchant account is F.D.K. out of idaho if I remember correctly.... and they have absolutely no association to the real company in Georgia that is called just "Timeshare Services" not " MY Timeshare Services"
