Amazing Firm

Accelerated Sales & Marketing, LLC helped me sell my contract with Vida. The process took three weeks for me to get funded, I received $180,000 for my Grand Luxxe Resort after getting registered with the Mexican government.

This is a timeshare scam and the company is cold calling to see if your timeshare for sale as they have a buyer. I played along told them yes.. they made up a contract that called for me to send them 5% of the price and they would put the buyers $$ in escrow to be held until the sale was closed. Their location is a digital office ..not real building..the red lights are that they want the seller $$ before it is closed and they wanted it wired. The promise to send a cheque for the seller $$ which bounces. I put this up on RIPOFF as this is the third time I have been called with this SCAM

CONFIRMING THIS IS A SCAM

I am a Vidanta owner and have been contacted numerous times by this company in the past week who claim to be buying up timeshares for a California tech company who needs additional tax right offs and has been authorized to buy approximately 25. Hum, is a California tech firm really going to hire these guys in Georgia to buy up real estate in Mexico for them? Didn't corporate tax rates just go down from 35 to 15 percent?

They emailed me a written offer for 50k for a timeshare I bought for around 17k, which seemed strange right off the bat. (I did not agree or commit to anything) The offer takes a 5% commission and states specifically that the buyer is responsible for reimbursing any fees involved. Apparently, people are getting wrapped up in paying 5-8k foreign transaction fees upfront on the sale and never seeing it. Not sure if the sales are even going through? They try to get you to sign an authorization for them to do a deed search on your property which does not constitute a commitment on your end to sell. They claim its to ensure your deed is real and to verify your info.

You can always go on a Secretary of State website in any state to see if a business even exists #1 and is current/updated with the state which they are required to do by law every year. Fascinating the things you can find - like they just dissolved and merged with this company a few months ago. They also filed several odd amended annual registrations right before doing so. The super crazy thing is that the letter is signed by Roger L McCollum, CEO, who is this guy! Owner of an automotive type company in Georgia? Wish I had time to be more of a sleuth on this one, but maybe someone can pick up where I left off. It is his signature on the document.

Totally Scammed

They scammed my husband and I out of over $60,000 AND WE WERE SELLING OUR PROPERTY AT VIDA. NOT BUYING.

Said we would get it all back along with the sale price. Every week for 6 weeks it was something else we had to pay to the Mexican government and then promised we would get it back from the purchaser.

If they call you, call the authorities immediately.

Edward Brown and his crew are total liars and thieves. DO NOT TRUST WHAT THEY SAY!

Total Scam

I too was scammed by an individual who represented himself to be a broker with Accelerated Sales and Marketing. This is a total scam. All the paperwork they send to you looks legit but in fact it is all fraudulent. I too was told that I would be reimbursed by the "End Renter" who is the person who was supposedly buying weeks of my timeshare. The number they used to contact me has a Georgia area code. I contacted the Atlanta Police Department who informed me that the phone they use to call are robocallers and therefore hard to locate where the original call is coming from. My advice to is stay away from anyone or entity offering to buy up weeks from your timeshare or who state that they want to buy your membership to your timeshare. I am now constantly getting calls from other individuals expressing their interest in purchasing weeks from my timeshare at Vidanta.

I was scammed

I feel so stupid that they managed to scam me. I had heard about these people, but I am in the process of actually legitimately selling my Vidanta time share, and when they contacted me, I thought that they were the real estate agents for this organization. I did send them $6099.00 US for some permit that the Mexican government apparently requires. However, this would be returned to me, apparently, as the buyer was actually paying for this, and it would be deposited into an escrow account. Then I got another call, stating that there was a sales tax, that had just come in, in Mexico. I now had to send $24000.00 to pay for this, but the buyer would also be covering this. These funds w ould be put into an escrow account.

I quickly realized that this was a scam, and asked my bank if they could recover the initial funds, which had been sent by wire. They are looking into this, but have told me that it is unlikely that I will get anything back.

Meanwhile, I have had two threatening phone calls, from two different people, telling me that if I wish to withdraw from the deal, I will have to pay $10000.00 in commission. If I don't do this, I will be in breach of contract, and will have to fly to Atlanta Georgia, and go to court. I have told them that I will not be doing this, and have been told, that if I don';t, I will be handcuffed and taken to jail, if I ever fly to the US or to MExico. Also, I will never be able to use my time share again.

Avoid these people! As I said, I would not have been trapped into this, if I were not already in the process of selling my Vidanta timeshare. Read the book 419, which is fiction, but explains how these scams work.
