Paradise Travel Consultants Shawn Saranicki This is a total SCAM!!!! Do not do business with this fraudulent company! Atascadero California
I contacted Shawn (the scammer) about scheduling a cruise since I had been offered it through my apartment complex as a reward for moving in. There was a $40 registration fee that I have never received back although I wasn't ignored and never able to schedule a cruise. He did contact me once in the beginning to discuss cruise options and when my mother and I finally selected one, he told us that we'd have 60 days before the cruise to pay in full. Once we agreed to this cruise (after much ado) he told me all we needed to pay was $198 each that day and the rest would be due March 15, 2017. He then called me back multiple times increasing the price and deposit amount each time until eventually requiring the whole amount upfront. When my mother finally had had enough and referenced his own booking form that he sent to us which states we had 10 days from paying our initial deposit to pay the remaining balance, he called her a "pit bull" (which I interpret to mean a b***h) and insulted her to me when I ended the conference call. He made up some story about the cruise lines needing all the money up front but that's not what we had discussed and that is not what his paperwork reads. He then told me something about using a company credit card to hold our cruise and he NEVER got back to us. I asked him a refund and he never responded. I emailed him and he just ignored them. I called him a few moments ago (before deciding to write this) and he hung up the answering machine so I couldn't leave a message. He didn't want to hear the truth that he is LYING, CHEATING, SCAMMER!! Please put this fraud out of business. Do not send Paradise Travel Consultants ANYTHING!!
