A lawyer’s office supposedly based in Malaga on the Costa del Sol and using the name of Cohen Abogados is doing a very interesting cold call campaign.
They contact Timeshare owners who have been defrauded by different dubious companies in the past.
The reason for their call is that after months and months of investigations by the Serious Crime Unit from Malaga, these 13 companies have finally been taken to court. All the assets have been seized and what is most important the judge has rewarded all victims with part of the money seized in way of compensation. Great news indeed!
Obviously the name of the Timeshare owner on the call was on the list of victims. Cohen Abogados informs him that they have been appointed to contact each one of them and explain that by paying a 10% of court costs over the awarded money they will receive the transfer straight away in their account.
Yep, a 10% which for some obscure reason cannot be deducted from the actual awarded money prior to sending it to the victim, so needs to be paid to Cohen Abogados.
For this payment they provide a bank account in an individual’s name, a supposed member of Cohen Abogados.
Cohen Abogados confirms all this in a letter and attach the court decision with this where it clearly names the companies involved, and the amount of money seized from these companies. The letter from the court is supposedly written in English mixed with Spanish words (Spanglish), which is rather strange for such an official entity.
Address for Cohen Abogados is Plaza de la Constitucion 6, 29005 Malaga, Spain
Telephone (Mobile) +34 632 223 557
No website but email address is cohenabogados@cohen.zzn.com
Please note that there is no such office as Cohen Abogados and neither has there been closures of 13 dubious companies in one go with money seized to be paid out to the victims.
If you have been contacted by a Julia Greenwood or other person claiming to be from Cohen Abogados with mobile 0034 632223557 in Malaga, then please let us know.

Dear Sirs,
I have also received cold calls from Greenges regarding Incentive Leisure Group Ltd. and my DWVC membership. Unfortunately I believed Dawn Taylor paying both Greenges and their legal representative. I have written to my credit card provider with the details but they have refused to respond and appear, from telephone calls that I have made, to be taking the stance that as this was outside the UK I have no claim.
Have you any advice as to how I might claim refunds for money obtained fraudulently?

I have also just received a letter from Michael Howard of Rosauro, Gran Via, Sevilla, 04001, Tel: 0034 950 700 047, advising “that on the 20th December 2012 Reclaim passed a special resolution, pursuant to section 241 (2) of the companies Act 1993 stating that the company has filed for voluntary liquidation and that Rosauro, of Almeria, Spain be appointed official liquidator”. Further, they advise that as official liquidators, there is no charge for their service as they obtain their costs out of the funds remaining from Reclaim. Do you have any information regarding this company please, is it legitimate or some other form of scam?
Kind regards,
Roy
