ITT Professionals/ Florida Crown Financial
Complaint 3271 Details

We were contacted by phone by James Taylor who claimed he worked for Florida Crown Financial. He told us that our timeshare was sold and we needed to send $1456.59 for title search and fees. We were very skeptical as we've been scammed before. He gave us Chase Bank's account for an ITT Professionals which was supposed to be a title company. This money had to be wired as soon as possible in order to close the sale. We were given the name of Brian Douglass who worked at ITT Professionals. We called him at (Personal Info Removed) and was assured that this was legitament and they did quite a bit of business with Florida Crown Financial. So we wired the money on May 9, 2011. We received a contract signed by the buyer in the mail a few days later. We were to sign our copy and return it by mail which we did. James Taylor called us again on May 25, 2011 that we needed to wire $756.43 in order to close and to use the same Chase Bank account information. James Taylor assured us that he was looking at the check as we spoke and as soon as the money cleared the bank he would send it via registered mail. We waited a week and called back. We were told it was sent. Back and forth we went. We were told it was sent to Michigan, Wyoming and was a human error. James said he would resend the check. We waited some more. More phone calls. We were told by James he'd put a tracer on it. We've been trying for a week to contact James leaving messages daily. He never returns our calls. The phone number for ITT Professionals is no longer in service. We are now out $2213.02.
