A very insisting cold caller has been spotted by the name of International Accounts Ltd.
This company is cold calling Timeshare consumers who have been defrauded previously by a holiday club or bogus resale etc.
International Accounts Ltd seems to know everything about this! That is not really a good sign added up to the cold call.
There are not many details on the company and we have serious doubts that indeed the people calling from this company are really working for International Account Ltd.
Telephone number used is 0843 8869167
Then the story goes, that the company the consumer dealt with before has been intervened by the police and courts, and their accounts have been traced and blocked. These accounts are all over the world. And the actual money the consumer paid to the bogus company before has been traced back to China! Yes, to a bank in Beijing or Hong Kong.
The consumer can actually recover the money from this bank, and International Accounts will help to do this. To start the consumer has to “register” with Western Union by phone to the number 0203 6089112
This is NOT Western Union! And forms part of the setup of International Accounts. The consumer receives a supposed registration number and with this he can then send the fees necessary to release the money in China.
Once the payment is done, a courier will be send to the home of the consumer to deliver the cheque with the money that is due from the accounts in China…
Please note that no cheque has arrived to any home of a consumer who unfortunately paid through Western Union!
Neither is there any record of police interventions and money blocked in accounts worldwide that is released to consumers.
So if you are contacted by International Accounts from 08438869167 or any other company with a similar story, be aware that this is NOT TRUE!
If they have called you already, then please let us know! You can email us at customercare@mindtimeshare.com or place a comment on the blog
I was contacted by this firm but no money was transferred as s*** was realised. Very devious people and as usual very convincing but please do not give them a penny
sounds like the story given by Harley Accountants.
