Re: Please report upfront fee scammers to Attorney General .... there's power in numbers ... Florida has begun

[Q=jayjay] If this company asks for NO upfront money, then go for it ... you have nothing to lose.[/Q] I know, on the surface, it sounds like a can't-lose situation. However, in another forum, someone asked about a resale company that claimed that it would only charge a 5% commission on the sale. Then, when the company called back, it gave the usual along the lines of, "We have a buyer. We just need X amount of dollars for a lien search/title/closing/tax, etc. fee." This obviously was a scam and merely gave this company someone's info (name, e-mail address, phone number, the fact that he is desperately looking to sell, etc.). My question is: Has anybody else had a dealing with Resort Advocate? Are they legit? A scam? Or am I just wasting my time --- merely giving another PCC my personal info so that they can sell that info to other PCCs?
