Re: WWV Media (by J V.):

The registered agent for WWV Media (DBA for Worldwide Vacation Marketing) is John Evvard. WWV Media is registered with the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, but is incorporated in New Hampshire. A1 Marketing was run by Joanne Evvard in Florida before the state shut them down in 2013.

"On March 6, 2013 the Florida Attorney General filed a lawsuit against A1 Marketing Unlimited, Inc., Joanne Evvard, Joseph Linde and Michael Paramo. Charges filed allege the business is in violation of Florida Statutes 721 and Florida Statutes 501.

Some of the alleged deceptive practices used by the company include, making false representations to consumers promising to sell their timeshares within a short time period; claiming to have buyers waiting with approved financing; offering full refunds for their services, but they never provided the refunds; misrepresentations of the contract terms; and charging consumers credit cards or cashed consumers' checks without obtaining a signed written contract from the consumer."

WWV Media is run by the same people who ran A1 Marketing in Florida. I've posted a link to the press release regarding the case against A1 Marketing below:

Also, just so there's no room for someone to argue that they're different people and it's a coincidence I have seen statements from people who were paying WWV Media, but the charges showed up as A1 Marketing.
