Hello and I think I have been scammed
I wish I had found this site earlier.I own a timeshare in Nuevo Vallarta. I got a phone call from a company from Chicago www.exclusivebeachfrontenterprise.com. They said that they had an interested party looking to buy timeshare that people may not want anymore.After talking with a person whose name is Ashley Wilson who assured me that no money was to be paid upfront by me I agreed.After agreeing and signing some paper work I was told that the person interested had put money into an escrow account.
The escrow company is from Charlotte,NC www.aeicoservices.com . I then was in contact with two people from this company the first one was Frida Hartz who got me to sign some papers to get things going,at this time no money was asked.Then I got a call that I needed to pay for Lawyer fees so they could do what was needed in Mexico.I was asked to wire money to GUADALAJARA, JAL. I was told it was necessary to do this to make every thing official. I should have told them at this time to forget about it,but I was reassured everything was legit.So I wired the money to GUADALAJARA, JAL.
A week later I was told I needed to pay a 25% federal tax on the money that I was to receive. After talking with Frida and she showed me a Mexican government website showing me the reason it was required I sent another wire to cover the tax. A week later I was contacted and was told that now I was required to pay a 7% state tax. Now I'm getting frustrated but I feel that I gone this far that I need to keep paying but I was assured that the person who was going to buy the timeshare was matching all the money I was paying into the escrow fund. Like clock work I was called the following Monday,Frida was sick and now I was talking to a guy by the name of Robert Alfandari. He tells me that they just found out that there is a luxury tax that has to be paid and then I would receive all the money owed to me within three to four business days.Of course I was irate and could not understand why I had to pay all this money.
Both Frida and Robert now has told me that ever since the new Mexican government came into power they been after every buddy to be all these taxes Reluctantly and foolishly I wired the money. When I told him that I was frustrated and feeling that I was getting sick and tired of paying all this money he said that I would not be asked for anymore and I should be receiving my money soon and he sent me a document telling me that I would not be asked for any more money. Well guess what....he called me today saying that the Mexican government did an audit on my sell and they said that they should have charged 25% instead of 7% for the state tax and that I need to pay the remainder of the tax so they want 17% more. I told him I could no longer afford to borrow anymore money from the bank.He said I had to pay it or the Mexican IRS would come after me.I suggested that he try to get the corporate buyer to pay it since he will be paying it all eventually and he said it had to come from me.I said why would it matter who pays it as long as the government gets it.
Both Ashley Wilson and Robert Alfandari are saying the same thing where I have to pay this tax.I told him I'm not paying anything more and if they can't figure a way for the corporate buyer to pay it up front I want mall my money back. Of course they wanted me to calm down and see the importance on paying the remainder of the tax so I would receive all the money that I paid out plus the money the corporate buyer originally offered.
I know I've been a fool and probably won't see my money back,but I need to know if any of this tax stuff is true? Could you please forward this to as many people that would look into this and maybe help me , please.
