Re: Re: Re: Has anyone purchased from Vallarta Gardens? (by Olin A.):

Hi Randall B.,

Can you send me the contact information of your lawyer? We have been scammed lately and it was 29 days before we realized it when they started pressuring us to pay our remaining balance. We said we would not pay it fully and we contested the downpayment from our credit card company but Vallarta Garden, now Kovay Garden is threatening us to be endorsed to a California collection agency.

Read back on this message thread - there have been numerous people who have been scammed. Even many of us that realized in time and legally got out of the contract are put through the wringer.

In our case, we signed up, with the standard deal - they would get a seller for our existing time share, which would cover the cost of their contract, we would sell weeks we didn't use, yadda yadda yadda.

I then did more research while we were still in Mexico, and when we returned a couple days later to finalize things, I let them know that we would be giving notice as required via registered mail of our intent to not enter into the contract. Even though we did everything by the book, they still sent our payment through on our Amex card. I then spent the next three months getting Amex to agree that it was not a valid contract. Finally Amex agreed to reverse the charge. That wasn't the end, though - VG sent the 'bill' to a California collection agency. It took a strongly worded letter from our attorney to get them to let it loose. These are bad actors engaged in bad acts.
