write to you to tell you of the set up and to maybe help to recoup some of the almost 25000.00 dollars I lost. I was contacted by Escape Travel in early September offering me 63000.00 dollars for my timeshare with Karisma Resort. Escape's address is Av. Paseo de la reforma *** **** ** ****** *********** ***** - tele numbers 888 203 5217 contact person Alejandro Liaguno. Next I was contacted by the offices of John S Brown telling me they were assigned by Escape to finalize the transaction on the US side. I sent my information about my timeshare to them and they forwarded it on to Escape. Brown's tele # in San Francisco 628 800 7140. Next Krisima sales department contacted me agreeing that I could sell my timeshare but needed 6300.00 dollars to complete their end of the transaction. I wired the money to Braxton Administradora De Resorts at Banco Santander in Ciudad De Mexico. Act Number ****************** Next Escape and Brown's office contacted me to say Escape was going to cover the cost of the 6300.00. Next Escape and Brown said that the total of 69300.00 was to be wired to my BB&T account. Soon thereafter IBFC, an international banking company called to tell me the wired money had been confiscated by SAT for capital gains that needed to be paid. Then SAT agent Laura Sanches 1*** *** **** called me and emailed me to request the capital gain tax of 15265.80 or the money would be impounded and the Mexican government would start a prosecution for tax evasion. I wired 15265.80 to Banco Santander Consultoria Tributaria Cobelsa Sa De Cv Shakespeare #84 Int 6 Col. Anzures Alc Miguel Hidalgo CP ***** ****** ** ****** **** ******************  Sept. 23. SAT released the funds and then Scotiabank 1 888 696 3115 wrote and called to tell me the money could not be wired due to a bank interference, but not to worry a cashier's check was going to be sent by expresscourier.mx and the reference number is 7228918200. I tracked the package as it traveled to the border where it was confiscated by custom and border police and would not be released until I paid a fine of 19500.00 because I had not filled out form 105. A senior border and customs agent Jorge Diaz Garcia 1 *** *** **** demanded payment or be prosecuted and placed on a no fly list. to and from the US. That is when I called the Mexican Embassy in Washington DC and was given your contact. I am also filing this time line with the US FTC. and Have also sent a formal complaint to the California Bar since the address of Brown is not accurate. I will forward as many emails as I can. Please contact me for any further information. The Customs agent continues to call and leave messages.
