    Brokers AB reached out to me via email. All are images. In connected with Yucca Publishing to set a deal to buy my story. A traditional publishing deal. All was well until I paid fees for acquisition. $6000. They switched banks in the middle of the deal. Then after all fees were paid, the broker was said to be in a critical vehicle accident. From there Yucca Publishing stated I needed a new broker but no one from Brokers AB called to update on Ms. T****** *******, the broker who reached out. Then someone calls me in the middle of the night saying he’s replacing Ms. T****** but later Yucca stated I needed a replacement. But this guy who calls himself “Jamie Brown” says he works for Brokers AB and spoke with Yucca. Yucca Publishing may be involved as well but I paid Brokers AB for requirements supposedly imposed by Yucca Publishing for acquisition. The broker went missing from Sept 11th to Sept 26, after I threatened to get authorities involved stating the deal has to take place in December now. You can see the Letter of Intent was for Sept 24th. They rushed the fees and then started disappearing. It will be extremely hard to catch this people. But they all called everyday until the $6000 was paid in full. Then as you see, she speaks as if the money can’t be refunded but I never received a contract from a publisher and I still own the rights to my story. I want a full refund and an investigation or Brokers AB. And the LLC or banks may not match the companies address. I believe this company is scamming self published authors. She or whoever only resurfaced today cus I called police and made a report and threatened to take out a civil lawsuit as well as put this alert out there. I’ve paid $6000 and have received NOTHING for it. I sent documents of Yucca Publishing. I was contacted by a guy named C**** ********* I will include his number as well. It’s going to be nearly impossible to locate these people. They don’t answer nothing. Emails, calls, nothing. They’re slick.
