WORLD ACQUISITION GROUP, LLC WORLD ACQUISITION GROUP, LLC/FIRST ALLIED PROPERTIES, INC. TIMESHARE SCAM NEW YORK NEW YORK
Two weeks ago, I received a call on my cell phone from a man calling himself Don Carlos. Mr. Carlos claimed to be a broker with First Allied Properties, Inc. out of New York, and stated he had a buyer looking to buy our timeshare in Cancun, Mexico. The following day, I was contacted Kevin Adams, who stated he was Mr. Carlos' supervisor and would be taking over my file due to the dollar amount involved. The day after that, I was approached by Patrick Cohen who claimed to be the senior broker with First Allied Properties. Mr. Cohen advised that TATA Chemicals was looking to purchase the majority of the weeks at my resort to turn it into a Disney-like resort. The following day, I received an Account Opening Request form from "World Acquisition Group, LLC" for the purpose of opening an escrow for the purchase of my timeshare. After 2 weeks of investigation, I have learned that the purported buyer (TATA Chemicals) has never heard of First Allied Properties or World Acquisition Group and was totally unaware of this bogus transaction. I have also been able to contact the actual owners of these two hijacked companies who advise that the identify of their respective companies were stolen in the early part of February 2017, and that new webpages for each company were created to scam unsuspecting victims. They owners of these victimized companies have jointly launched an FBI investigation into this scam.

RIPOFF REPORT DOES NOT ALLOW PEOPLE FILING AN INITIAL RIPOFF REPORT TO EITHER MODIFY AN EXISITING REPORT OR DELETE IT AND RESUBMIT IT, SO I AM DOING THIS AS A REBUTTAL TO MY ORIGINAL REPORT TO MAKE SURE READERS KNOW THAT THE REAL OWNERS OF BOTH FIRST ALLIED PROPERTIES, INC. AND WORLD ACQUISITION GROUP, LLC ARE ALSO VICITIMS OF THIS SCAM. The names of their respective legitimate and well-established businesses were stolen and used to perpetrate this scam. I have had a chance to talk with both owners who are working hard with their attorney to shut this scam down and have launched an FBI Investigation into this scam.
