Universal Marketing Solutions, Nicole ,Nikki Vecchio They fraudulantly said they had a buyer for my timeshare for $20,800 and requested that I send them $1422.76 to finalize documents. They did not have a buyer and never consumated the sale, DelRay Beach, Florida
Please help me. Back in November 6, 2008, I "listed" my TimeShare when an "Agent" NICOLE "NIKKI" VECCHIO of Universal Marketing Solutions said she had a buyer for my timeshare, offering to pay me $20,800. She informed me that "the buyer (from New Jersey) already had placed a down payment on my timeshare of $3000. I was required to send her $1200 (via my Credit Card) and then another $222.76 totaling $1422.76 for them to complete the legal work for the title search and transfer. The purchase could be completed by Mid-december 2008.
I called her back in Mid December and she informed me that they were extremely busy with their clients but that my paper work would be completed by January 13, 2009. I called yesterday, (January 12, 2009) and she informed me that it would certainly be completed by January 26th, 2009. After I hung up, I became suspicious.
This afternoon, I googled UNIVERSAL MARKETING AND READ YOUR REPORT. I'm heart broken. I've been ripped off, big time!!! Can you help me? I live in Jenison My phone number is 6xx-xxx-6xxx.(((REDACTED FOR SECUIRTY PURPOSES)))
I've tried calling "Nikki" but now I'm only getting her answering service. She initially told me that I could get this $1200 back within 24 hours-- any time I decided to quit the process. Obviously not true! Please help me to know how to proceed.
I wish I'd would have searched the internet BEFORE I sent in the money. I'm retired, 75 years of age. My brother gave me this time share just before he died. Please help!

Universal Marketing Solutions-DelRay, Fl $1422.76 Scam for Timeshare Sale
#4Author of original report
Tue, January 13, 2009
I was contacted by Universal Marketing Solutions agent, Nicole Vechccio or "Nikki" inand was told they had a buyer from Jackson, NJ, who has made a $3000 deposit on the purchase of my Timeshare, for the sale price of $20,000 plus $2,200 for the sale of two weeks banked. For a title search and documents preparation, I need to send them a total of $1422.76. All they needed was my Credit Card number. The Closing Date was scheduled for mid December '08. I called on subsequent dates in december and January '09, and was told the same thing. would call to verify the progress of the sale, Each time I was told that it was postponed because they were so busy serving so many clients. I was assured the sale would be finalized by January 13, and now moved to January 26th. I now realize this is a classic case of fraud. After verifying my suspicion on the Internet sight (Ripoff Report) I immediately contacted my Credit Card company who is now holding the $1422.76 paid to Universal as "in Dispute". I also contacted the Attorney General's office in West Palm Beach, FL and also DelRay City Police Department (Detective Brian Bollen) to report individuals and their fraudlent scheme. Special Thanks to Mr. Bill A. who assisted me with the necessary names and phone numbers, enabling me to pursue the proper course of action.
