Global Equity Network IN May of 2008 I was asked if I wanted to sell my timeshare. I lost $12,000. Las Vegas Nevada
I was contacted by Craig Rudolph to sell my timeshare in St. Thomas, V.I. He said he had a client interested in buying timeshares so that the client could use them for seminars, conferences, perks, etc. At the time I thought it was very plausable and paid $1,000.00 by credit card. The following month I paid another $3,272.00. In the meantime, I was being contacted by Melissa Davis, and subsequently by Jessica (don't know her last name). A month after that, I was charged another $4,126.00 and then was charged a fourth time in the amount of $4,472.00 for a total of $12,870.00.
Each time they faxed me a form with only Craig's name typed in for me to sign. This happened four times. Two or three times they actyally credited my card before I returned the signed form, as evidenced by my credit card statements.
NIne times out of ten when I called to talk to them, the receptionist had one excuse after another as to why I couldn't talk to them. Neither did they call me back for the most part. The excuses were unbelievable, even I couldn't come up with all of them. When I would eventually talk to Melissa or Jessica, the excuses again were very plausible, but not believable.
I finally wrote them a letter the early part of this year requesting a full refund since I honored my end of the deal which was to pay them, and they did not fullfill their obligations. I did give them the option of paying me back, in which case I would go away, and never talk to them again, or I would contact as many agencies as I could in Las Vegas such as BBB, which I did. I have also mailed information to the Attorney General's office who wrote back saying they are looking into it. I believe there may be a class action going on but am not sure. If there is, I will definitely participate.
All the rip-off reports I have read by other people on this company are true, so I will not repeat them.
Incidentally, I also checked Global Financial which I think is above Global Equity and they too have rip-off reports. The BBB has an "F" rating on both companies. They tried to help me but the company did not respond to them.
I am giving serious thought to writing to the media in Las Vegas and New York and see if they are interested in my story. I would gladly talk to them.
This has been going on too long, just over a year and I want my money back.
Right after I talked to Craig Rudolph I did go on the website and only found a two-page advertisement from them and no information on them from BBB or from Rip-Off. I later learned they only started their business in April of 2008.
If they did have a client, how come the client did not question them?
They need to be closed down and stop ripping off other innocent customers. How can they sleep at night? What about their families? It's beyond my comprehension.

Global Equity Network & Royal Elite Timeshare Scam
#2Consumer Comment
Wed, November 13, 2013
I decided to try and sell my Royal Elite timeshare and was scammed by Global Equity Network. All they do is prey on people that are trying to do the right thing. I was unemployed and was trying to sell my timeshare so I would not fall in default. They told me that my property was in high demand and had been selling quite well. The representative contacted me a couple of times to offer me a deal and the final deal was $500 to post and sell my timeshare.
I was desperate and decided to make the investment. What a waste of my money. It has been listed since 3/09 and I have not had one inquiry for the timeshare or even a week rental. I have lowered the price a couple of times and all I got, on the other end of the phone, is a trained monkey reading off a script. My timeshare has not sold and I wasted $500 for a service that was never rendered. Do not let these people scam you or anyone else!!

Global Equity Network now goes by the name Vacation Resorts U.S.A. Since their name change (01/01/2009). You should complain again to the proper authorities. Their new address is 1681 E. Flamingo #1, Las Vegas. They also have just opened another scam in Vegas called "Las Vegas Deals on Wheels".
