Total money lost $41,000
Type of a scam Travel/Vacations
I’m 82 years old. I wired $41,000 to a company calling itself "LexMar Realty". I got a call about 3 months ago from a couple of guys, one goes by Peter Murphy. He asked if I was interested in selling my condo in Mexico. Then another guy called and offered more. They asked me for a transfer fee for a condo. They said the fee has to go through the government but their legal dept could speed up the process. I went to my bank to wire the money. My bank asked if I was sure. Their title company is using the name "Complete Escrow Title".

Lexmar makes the initial call how they got around scam blocker is pretty impressive. Found buyer fast for our timeshare in Mayan Rivera. After initial contract days before closing sent email that was blocked by spam.
Called Complete Escrow and Title and informed Mr Green that we would not wire money to Mexico to close deal to pay foreign tax. They have shell account showing money ready for wire transfer into our account and money waiting. Seconds later and I mean seconds later Mr Lee calls and informs me that his company will take legal action to recover money they lost.
I emailed Mr Green and informed him that adding ammendum to contract has voided initial contract and invoked customer satisfaction guarantee clause of original contract.
Told him that if either company attempts to contact us legal action would be taken.
