Diamond has obtained a permanent injunction against Kyle Brown, Martin Brown, and five business entities they own or operate – Exchange Points Club, LLC, Premier Rewards, LLC d/b/a Member Perks, LLC, VMG Resorts LLC, Vacation Management Group, LLC, and Owner Extras LLC.

The case – Diamond v. Exchange Points, et al., which was filed in the United States District Court of Nevada – was brought in response to activities by defendants in which they were accused of:

  • Engaging in an advertising campaign directed at Diamond Resorts® members that falsely suggested an affiliation with Diamond Resorts® so as to trick members into turning over control of their vacation points.
  • Renting out the use of Diamond Resorts® points to their own customers by falsely presenting themselves as authorized distributors of vacation stays at Diamond Resorts properties.
  • Charging Diamond Resorts® members a substantial up-front fee for the "service" of renting out their vacation ownership points, even though Defendants have no authorization to do so.
"We believe that this scheme was designed to deceive our valued members," said Mike Flaskey, CEO, Diamond Resorts®. "We hope this case sends a clear message that Diamond Resorts will do everything in our power to protect our members."
