Type of a scam Counterfeit Product
Hector Garcia of Property Management Interactions (of Chicago) has tried to convince me of selling my time share in ***. He offered $18,900 plus a $2250 transfer fee. He has claimed that he has a buyer already lined up and that money is in escrow. I have signed papers but after the closing company, Alliance Resource Advisors (of Dallas), asked for a transfer fee of $2250 to be wired, I got very skeptical. I called *** Resorts to validate my suspicions and they supported my thoughts of a scam.
I looked up both companies on the internet and nothing was posted. They both had generic websites and the offer was enticing.
Please make people aware of this scam.

I manage a coworking space at 111 W. Illinois St. in Chicago. Several building management-level employees have received phone calls from potential clients of a company called Property Management Interactions, inquiring about further company information as they noted the opportunity sounded fishy. This led me to Google search the company and find its website, (http://www.propertymanagementinteractions.com). This company is NOT at this address. When I called the number listed and said I was in the lobby (as I work in the building), they claimed to be a "virtual" office by appointment only. Eventually I asked too many questions and the woman hung up on me.
