says he scammed 1400+ timeshare owners all while living large in mexico.

sad

Authorities arrested Freeman in July 2012 in Las Vegas. According to his plea declaration, Freeman was involved with various Mexican-based companies, including International Resorts Resale, Resort Closing Services, Timeshare Consolidators, Timeshare Liquidators, and Transfer My Timeshare. At Freeman’s direction, “lead generators” contacted the timeshare owners and explained that the companies could coordinate the sale of their properties. When an owner expressed interest, company employees known as “liners” followed up to arrange the first payment, which the liners claimed would be refundable even though it wasn’t. - See more at: http://enewspf.com/2016/02/02/forme...ational-timeshare-fraud/#sthash.t5UaSSm7.dpuf
