Liberty Financial Chris Holden Alexander Lucas Contacted by Chris Holden with offer to sell Timeshare. He made offer. I Accepted. Escrow sent. Had closing set, 8/10/15 .Never Happened. Out $2500! Santa Monica California
I was contacted by Chris Holden of Liberty Financial on 5/11/15 with an offer to sell my Coral Sands Timeshare.
Chris called me back the next day, made me an offer and I accepted. In a few days I received a contract that listed
Kenneth and Michelle Hayes as the Buyers and they were putting 20% down and I would need to put 10% in the escrow
account for Security Title and Transfer Deposit (fully reimbursed at closing). Funds were wired from my bank account to
TD Bank, and TCN Services (title Co.), Orlando, Fla.
Mr. Holden notified me a few days later that there was a problem that needed to be addressed. I was then contacted
by Alexander Lucas who stated that because I had listed my Timeshare for sale with a company, I needed purchase a bond
to cover any claims by that company. Lucas was rather rude and pushed me to pay for the Bond at a cost of over $1000.
Bond Money was also wired TD Bank and TCN Services. These last funds were deposited in the escrow account on June 1st.
I was told that it would take around a month for Coral Sands Resort to process the paperwork, so I waited. In the middle of
July I contacted Chris Holden to see what was going on. On July 22nd Chris called saying that the paperwork was
done and a closing date was set for August 10th, 2015 and that he would overnight the paperwork for my part of
the closing. August 10th has come and gone. The closing did not happen, and I have had no response at all from Liberty
Financial. Numerus calls and e-mails to Chris and Alexander are, on this 12th day of August, unanswered.
These Guys are very SLICK and need to be caught and arrested. I am feeling really stupid and I believe I was SCAMMED.

I really want to catch these crooks and get my great aunt her money back. They stole $3600 from an elderly woman basically. What is your action plan? We may be able to catch them if we work together.

Your first clue should have been when they asked you, the seller, to put money into escrow because that is not the way it works. Next clue was the demand that you purchase a bond.
Did you verify that the escrow company was for real? Did you verify that the money you wired was going to them?
The reality is that there was no buyer and the people you are dealing with are con artists. Your money is gone.
