Company simply robbed us, taking 2.038.31 dol. in marketing fee, then taking another 4.195.00 dollars as so called closing fee for promises to sell our timeshare unit. Mr. Jon Stevens and Mr.H. Brooks sound like sincere and honest persons first taking a lot of time to talk with us and explaining everything in details, but after they got our money, which they practically stole from us, like common thieves, they become unreachable, not answering calls or messages, taking advantage of vulnerable retired people by putting their hard earned money in their own pockets to support their own lavish lifestyles.The company committed the fraud and need to be investigated with bringing criminal charges against them and suspending their license to protect aanother innocent persons against future robberies.6eae

Anyone scam by Blue Scape you may want to read this.

Required telemarketing law in the State of Florida:
The law requires businesses that solicit the sale of consumer goods or services to be licensed, to post some form of security, and that their salespersons be licensed. It also requires the solicitor to identify him or herself by true first and last name and the name of the business on whose behalf he or she is calling. It requires a written contract that matches the description of the goods or services offered in the telephone solicitation, contains the name, address, telephone number and license number of the seller, and states the buyers right to cancel immediately preceding the signature. The written contract is not required if the consumer is given a full refund for the return of undamaged and unused goods or a cancellation of services within 7 days of receipt of the goods or a cancellation of the services and the seller processes the refund within 30 days after receipt of the returned merchandise by the consumer.

According to the law several laws were broken to whom ever conducted business with Blue Scape properties. Being a ex employee I know for a fact real names are never used when speaking to the seller.

The written contract seller received is not were discussed during the conversation.

There perhaps be a loop hole with the cancellation of services within the 7 days. If a group of people come forth claiming the same claim of deceit and refunds were not given within 30 days you may have a case. Good Luck

Royal Resorts USA advertises themselves as a Timeshare Reseller with the ability to offer near actual cost for a time share to be sold in bulk to large corporations and companies worldwide. The initial contact is a telephone call to introduce the representative to set up the account saying:
1. They have a purchase requirement from a corporation to buy several million Wyndham points.
2. The representative states he has the authority to obligate and commit so much money to purchase the Wyndham Timeshare points.
3. Our telephone number is provided by Wyndham on a listing that only Royal Resorts USA has access to.
4. The representative then proceeds to offer a quote for the points that is approximately equal to the Wyndham value if purchased in a lump sum.
5. The representative then proceeds to say the closing should be in about four months and gives a general time such as a week in January.
6. The subject of “Marginal Equity” is brought up and should be available within three months of signing the agreement.
7. When outstanding points are discussed the representative proceeds to get a quote from the buyer.
8. Statements are made the proceeds from the sale are not taxable and this will be part of the closing package.
9. When the verification process is started there can be no mention of obligating for sale and no promises of completion or mention of any commitments on the part of the representative since this is a recorded conversation.
10. A copy of the agreement is sent as an attachment to an e-mail to be signed by one of the sellers then an original is sent for both signatures to mail back.
11. There is a refundable deposit attached to the agreement which is supposed to be the only money that is required for Royal Resorts USA to process the sale.
12. There is a single representative that starts then as time goes on there enters a manager, customer service, attorney, etc…
13. Principals;
a. Michael Daniels – Senior Inventory Manager

e. Harvey Brooks – Customer Service

9/16/2009 Phone call from Royal Resorts USA, Michael Daniels, 877-343-8438, to see if we wanted to sell our 1, 000, 000 Wyndham points. After discussions and sales talk we decided to give it a try. There was a $2500.00 refundable deposit to initiate the agreement of $220, 000.00 selling price for the 2010 recurring points or deeded property for which the agreement would state $222, 500.00 as the selling price. The deposit was put on one of our open credit cards and accepted by Royal Resorts USA. The anticipated closing date would be approximately 1/5/2010. At this time Michael Daniels said he had the authority to allocate funds to purchase the property. During the discussion Michael Daniels stated that Royal Resorts was the only company with a Nevada Timeshare sales license and led us to believe Royal Resorts USA is the only authorized company to handle the Wyndham properties. At the end of the discussions we were turned over to Wendy, in billing, to verify the information with a recording of the phone call. During the recorded phone call we could not affirm the allocation statement or the statements about having a buyer available.
Summary:
Royal Resorts USA has misrepresented themselves in several ways:
1. It is evident there was not nor has there ever been large corporations lined up to buy Timeshares on the resale.
2. There was never any intent to close the contract.
3. There is no money available to pay for the purchase of the Timeshare.
4. The only reason was to convince sellers to list and pay the deposits.
5. There is no valid license
6. There is no connection with Wyndham Resorts or any Wyndham entity.

I have a 7 page documenting a majority of the communication available upon request.

We were solicited by Timeshare Liquidators to list our timeshare property in Cancun, Mexico for sale. They sold our property supposedly to a buyer in Dubai. They advertise that there are no upfront costs. Well, what they don't advertise is that they keep requiring the seller to keep prepaying closing costs, almost on a weekly basis. We have $7, 000.00 prepaid toward the closing and now the so-called compliance guy, David Strickland, is trying to extort another $2, 200.00 in legal fees before releasing our funds from escrow. We have contacted the Massachusetts Licensing Board, whose investigator found out that they aren't even licensed to sell real estate. We were never allowed to talk to anybody besides David Strickland no matter who we called for. At this point, the legal department of the transfer company is working with us as well as the licensing board for our funds after four months of being harassed and threatened by Mr. Strickland.

Realty Trade promised to refund my money if my timeshares did not sell in six month. Said they had a high customer base and sold to many international customers.

Ten days prior to the end of the contract I sent a certified letter to Realty Trade and the BBB of Central Florida requesting my credit card be credited in the amount of $495.00.

After call Realty Trade they advised me that I was sent three offers and I did not respond to any of the offers. My spam box was empty and to date I have not received my refund. I am still trying to get my reimbursement.

Will never do business with any timeshare resale company again.
