Victim Location AB T2W 2P2, CAN
Total money lost $2,400
Type of a scam Credit Cards
In March I flew from Canada to Costa Rica, San Jose, and visited the CRIE office, located at Centro Comercial Trejos Montealegre 8 San José Province, San Rafael de Escazú 10203 Costa Rica.
I had 2 meetings with Johanna Alvarez and her colleague, submitted 2 documents to start an application for the residency process. It was few days later, after I returned to Canada, when I realised that instead of paying the quoted amount of $1900.00 USD I was charged $4345.00 USD. When I requested a difference $2400.00 of overcharge to be returned to me, I received no reply. Now you see a picture: several clients per day x by $2400 USD x weeks/ month / year, that is how much money, fraudulently extorted from clients, are pocketed by the "agents" of the CRIE.
I have the documents and bank statements to prove it.
In simple words the people who operate from the San Jose office in Costa Rica are thieves who operate from the office located in San Jose, managed by Johanna Alvarez, and use this office for their personal financial gain, practising money extortion and overcharges.
I am not sure if Michael Alan and Marcela Gurdian are aware about those illegal activities, I suggest they may want to revise the agency personnel and perhaps establish some kind of controls/ guidelines/ accounting and office procedures and measures to prevent the staff from using that office as a well oiled money extortion machine, and until that happens, when you hear a name Costa Rica Immigration Experts/ CRIE, ple[censored]d on to your wallets, and when you see a name Johanna Alvarez, run away as fast as you can.
