Fraud/Scam Artist
I received a call from a guy with Resort Marketing last Thursday, 11/12/2009 trying to sell vacation packages strictly to business owners at a great deal, $99.00 for a 6 day hotel with any Hilton, Marriott, Sharaton, Hyatt, Holiday Inn, Radisson and a few more any where in the US at anytime within 12months. He asked me if he could send a rep by on Friday to explain more. I agreed, it sounded like a great deal. A Paul Grembowicz came by with his business card and folders with paperwork including all the logo's from theses various hotels and dressed with a nice suit on. He said he was the owner of Vacation Specialist. He is the only one that comes close to a vacation. He makes you pay him by check payable to him. He cashed it at my bank as soon as he left my office. I called Monday to make reservations and got no answer, later left another voicemail. When I didn't hear from anyone I started looking up on the internet for more contact information. I then see all of the fraud warnings everywhere on a William Grembowicz with the same stories I am telling. This guy is good and he needs to be stopped. My plan was to call the cops on Tuesday and then he all of a sudden calls me. Although this time it was a Jeff Wells who called from 1-954-495-9163 which showed up on my caller id. He then asked me a few questions to submit my reservation and said that I would get it by Wednesday by email. He also emailed me to let me know that my reservation was being processed signing the email by Heather, however the senders name appeared William Grembowicz. He is good, really good, and needs to be stopped. I am contacting authorities but I'm afraid he has moved on to another area now. I think his call was just to delay me from contacting police.
