Has anyone had success with Fastest Exit llc and Vidanta?

Fastest Exit’s BBB profile reveals many complaints with the BBB adding that they can’t locate the business. While these scammers should be put in jail the most likely outcome will be a new company doing the exact same scam.

The company had responded early in the BBB investigation that they are out of business as of May 1st. They also claim to not be related to the website which I believe is just a lie to try and separate themselves from the fraud they committed.

Same run around I am getting... so mad that I fell for this!!! I am livid to say the least!

Is it too late to file a dispute with your credit card provider?

Is it too late to file a dispute with your credit card provider?

I am filing reports with government agencies. I do not have to worry about my credit reports and such just can't understand how this can go on for years without them being stopped. And how stupid I was to fall for it. So naive and trusting, grrrrrr.

There's a difference between credit reports and credit card provider (Visa, MC, AMEX, etc.) You can try filing a dispute with your credit card if you paid these thieves with your CC.

I know you want to beat yourself up over this but there are many others who have come on these boards with similar stories to yours falling for these upfront fee scammers. Unfortunately (this has been discussed many times here on TUG) the reason why "this can go on for years without them being stopped" is because, for one thing, many resorts refuse to take back TSs from owners who want out. Thus, the owners go seeking the "help" of these exit companies.

It is quite a shame/sham that this behavior can continue. However, just to put my mind at ease, I filed complaints with the BBB,and the Federal Trade Commision, Whether it does any good who knows, but it makes me feel better. I also will dispute the charge with my credit card company which may be a real shot in the dark. It pains me that they are doing exactly what they were trying to rectify and did it with everyone in good faith. I did not lose what many of these folks lost , but money is money and it's the principal!! Have a great rest of your day.

people not reporting to every agency they can is one reason these companies can continue to operate with impunity!

we always urge victims to report to AGs offices in their home state, as well as the state the company is headquartered in!

Fraud is a calculated gamble. It is not a gamble about being caught, but a gamble that being prosecuted will be too difficult. The odds unfortunately have tipped well into the fraudsters favour. Why would a government employee take on a well financed fraud operation? Lawyers put poor odds on prosection success for fraud.

Most of these companies are run by drug cartels in Mexico. There is no way for you to recover money that you have paid them Pursuing them can be deadly. I won't mess with them.

I have yet to hear of any Americans being killed by them. I know they take out employees who have jumped ship.

Fastest Exit, LLC has filed bankruptcy. The page below indicates that they have no assets. Knowing these are scammers, I am sure they have hidden the thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars of upfront fees from the court. Anyone scammed should write the bankruptcy judge and advise that they were scammed. I am not an attorney but I would think that a company or individual cannot file bankruptcy for fraudulent business activities.

1. I have sent and received emails from Profeco and do have a case number with them. I have asked for the Profeco settlement results, but have not got them so far.
2. They negotiate on my behalf with Vidanta.
3. The claimed tax is the 16% IVA that I need to pay on the settlement. They claim I could recoup it only if I was a Mexican citizen.
4. I agree.
I received a flyer that I think targeted all Vidanta owners

The only reason I was holding out hope was the Letter of Intent that was sent to me, as I would think that would open them up to a huge legal liability if they back out.

Sounds like Profeco has been overwhelmed by Vidanta/ Fastest Exit scam. Profeco has not responded to my complaint filed by Fastest Exit for me. Vidanta sold me a very deceptive contract which should be addressed by Profeco. Fastest Exit is in bankruptcy court. The gamble didn't pay off for them, a rarity in our fraud ridden world.

I wouldn’t be so sure of that.

Profeco has not responded to my complaint filed by Fastest Exit for me.

Fastest Exit is a scammer. They don’t do anything but scam. The reason why Profeco has not responded is because Fastest Exit did not file anything on your behalf.

I have been in contact with Profeco. I responded to the first hearing of my case initiated by Fastest Exit. I did not accept Vidanta(now)'s answer. My last Profeco email was telling me about the results of the first hearing, in which Vidanta responded, confirming my financial dealings with Vidanta timeshare purchase and upgrades. I had to respond within a limited time. I indicated that I wanted (a) continuance. There has been no confirmation from Profeco of having received my intention to go to the second hearing level.
Profeco was very slow bringing my Fastest Exit initiated complaint to the first hearing with Vidanta. Fastest Exit closed shop months before my case was actually heard.
