Re: anyone been to this resort? (by Tracey G.):

We were in Costa Rica in April 2012 and attended a timeshare presentation by Miramar. We purchased a two bedroom unit for three weeks for 30 years from them. At the same time they offered, through Omnicorp Development, to rent out this property at $2500USD a week for 10 years. They also offered through Omnicorp Development to purchase our two existing timeshare properties. At Omnicorp Development we were dealing with Scott Riggs. Before proceeding we spoke with him several times by phone. We were asked to pay a one off fee of $2150.00 for the Omnicorp Development service. We subsequently spoke with and emailed Scott Riggs several times over the following month as we followed up with paperwork and the progress of our contract. During this time we received proffessional and prompt service and replies.

Since then we have heard nothing. Under the terms of our contract Omnicorp were due to pay us for the two timeshare properties by19th Feb 2013. We have tried to call them a number of times but no one will answer their phones. We finally emailed them and received a standard response saying they were "looking into it". Reading through these bloggs it appears the scam has been going on for a number of years. (wish I had found this before April last year). During this time a number of different company names appear to have been used to rent and sell the timeshare. Omnicorp Development seems to be the latest business set up to scam people. I have followed through and lodged a complaint against Omnicorp with the Illinois Attorney General. I advise as many people as possible to do the same though I doubt we will ever see any of our money.
