I was contacted by Property Management Worldwide on 1/14/11 They said they had a buyer for my timeshare. I even had a second call after Chris Johnson, and then he said your unit is already sold.I tried to call back nobody knew who called but then said it was Chris. I never heard from them again and then found the number disconnected. I then got letter from my timeshare telling me to beware of phonies like these.
they called. promised a GREAT deal. But... the address they claim on their web site is not where they are. I googled that address and found the REAL tenants. Called them up and they said they get calls all the time looking for Property Management Worldwide but that they are not at that address.
The BBB confirms that they (PMW) does not have a presence at the address they claim. Red flags abound. They want "upfront" earnest money (from the seller!!). Yeah, right.
I might be just a dumb ole hill billy from WV but hey, I have internet and I know how to use it!! I just love technology. Google searches are fun!! Stay away from those guys at that number.
Wow! They almost got me. It was to good to be true! They called me to sell my time share, in one day they have already had the buyer's down payement ready to be wired to my account. They Did not send No paper work,... however, They asked for banking account information to wire the money on to the account. It sounded suspecious .I hung up. . Do not do business with Property Management Worldwide they SCAMERS!!
Love google!
I received a call from Property Management Worldwide. I was tempted at their offer. they offered around $11,000 for my time share stating that he had a customer waiting and wanted it. (this is one of the first scam warnings). the BBB does indeed report that they could not be found at that address and when I asked him about what suite he was in (he acknowledged that he was working there physically), he had to shuffle some papers to find the suite number. I would expect if you worked at a physical location, you would know what suite you go to for work.
I also found that their website domain name was registered in November of 2010 which means they have only had a web presence for 2 months. Robert said that they were in business for 4 years now and the web site says they have 20 years experience.
Their refund policy on the web site says nothing at all other than talking with your attorney. the sample legal contract states you have 7 days to cancel but that does NOT state you get your $$ back. Also, the contract says after 7 days, there is no refund but it takes up to 45 days to complete the process so if there really isn't any customer, you have to wait before backing out of the contract and thus you lose if the "customer" does not pan out.
When I confronted the "inconsistencies" to Robert, he hung up the phone on me. I called back to ask if he hung up on me and he said he was not going to waste his time trying to convince me of the legitimacy of his business. those are not his exact words but it is basically what he said.
They will not take their money AFTER the transaction is completed so you roll your dice if you want to try it with them. Too much is too sketchy about them.
One thing I should also mention. In the "legal contract" sample they show you, they will ask for your Banking Account Number, Routing Number, and Check Number. with
with that information, they can deposit AND withdraw and there is nothing you can do about it other than to open a new checking account with a new number. NEVER give them your Account number and routing number. If someone has money for you, have them send a check.
