Time Share Sale Reports & Reviews (1)

I was contacted by a Junior Broker who asked if we were interested in selling a Time Share we had in Mexico, and gave us an offer via e-mail. Then Mr. Maleh took over on subsequent calls. We specifically asked if there were ANY upfront costs to us before the purchase funds would be released, as we did not have money to meet them if they should arise later in the transaction. He assured us that the ONLY cost would be the Mexican Tax ID of $5203 US. Much later in the process he asked for $18,700 US because the Banregio Bank was charging a transfer fee for holding the account and for converting the money from pesos to US Dollars. When I told him I did not have the money, he suggested that he would put up 30% and I would do 70%. When I said I still did not have that much money, he then said HE would put up the 70% and I would only have to come up with 30%. After sending the 30%, I was sent a letter which came supposedly from the National Banking (spelled Baking) and Stock Commission informing him and myself that they were unable to accept his contribution on my behalf and that they were holding his money(and mine) until I had made the 70% payment. Unfortunately, the letter did not show any type of e-mail markings, a date, address or time it was sent, only a signature for one of the men on the Banking Commission. The speed with which this letter was sent, and the lack of any tracking of emails, and the misspelled translation of the word Banking in English (Baking) in two separate places, made me uneasy. Previous correspondence had looked very authentic until this point. The documents had seemed like they were actual , real documents. I had already gone to my bank to send the last money requested, but they saw several red flags and were not forthcoming in providing the amount of money I was prepared to send that day. They advised me to go home and do my homework on this "company" and on this "broker" and check out the address given for the said Realty Corp. When speaking with Mr. Maleh on the phone after my failed bank visit, he became quite defensive, stating that he had been prepared to help me and that now HIS money was in jeopardy if I did not send the balance due ($13, 146 USD) and that I would be subject to legal action because I had not honored the contract I had signed and was now responsible for all expenses that the BUYER had had to undergo.

I made some phone calls to the Better Business Bureau in Pittsburgh but found that this company was not registered, and had not responded to the ScamPulse.com's request for information regarding location and activity, etc.

I also called the Pennsylvania Real Estate Commission, who informed me that the company was not registered and that Mr. Maleh was not licensed in Pennsylvania as a broker or as a real estate agent.

If the company does not exist legally in the state from which they are supposedly operating, given the address they provided me on their letterhead and emails, (620 Liberty Avenue, 22nd Floor, Pittsburgh, PA, 15222,) I do not see how any contract that I have signed with that company or person can be legally binding on me. Also, if the broker, Mr. Maleh, has no license to operate this business, I do not feel any threats he makes to me regarding legal redress about the contract can be carried out because he, himself, is in breach of the law. He had no authority to make such a contract in the first place.

I am currently NOT responding to his calls. I do not have access to a further $13,146USD and I am unsure where to get help in retrieving my money. Supposedly, it is in an account that is frozen until I complete the requested payment. Supposedly, the money for my Mexican Time Share that was to be disbursed to me upon closing .is in a Trust account at Banregio Bank and will not be released until said $13,146 USD is paid in full by September 1, 2023, which date came out of the blue and is not written on any of the agreements or correspondence that I can find at this time. Also, this amount was NOT stipulated in the said "contract".
