I work for the police department here and have fielded a number of complaints about Alliance Title Service, 497 Oakway Rd, suite 360, Eugene OR 97401, in regards to Vacation International in Grand Rapids, Michigan. This is a Nigerian-style fraud scam targeted at people who own time share properties at a specific resort in Mexico, probably due to a customer data breach with that resort. The purpose is to make the victims believe the contact is legitimate and get them to wire money to a bank in Mexico. There is no Alliance Title Service company in the state of Oregon and the Eugene address is fictitious, it does not exist! The websites www.alliancetitleservice.com and www.vacationmanagementinternational.com do not exist. The names, company information and documents given to the victims are all false. Even the phone numbers probably do not really correspond with the locations where these people say they are, as anyone can purchase a phone number from an area code where they don't exist. The people victims speak to on the phone can be anywhere in the world, and may even be work-at-home scam victims themselves. Report these to www.ic3.gov, the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center. It doesn't do any good to contact my department to file a report, as there is no Eugene link. Thanks.
