Current Alerts For This Business
8. Approach all business dealings, marketplace transactions and commitments with integrity, good faith and intent to do what is reasonably expected. Avoid involvement, by the business or its principals, in activities that reflect unfavorably on or otherwise adversely affect the public image of BBB or its accredited businesses.
As of September 4, 2024, Better Business Bureau has received two complaints from consumers alleging Global Trading Company contacted them stating they were a licensed real estate agency in Colorado with a buyer wanting to purchase their timeshares in Mexico. Global Trading Corporation LLC told these consumers they had to pay taxes, fees, costs, resort fees, and commissions prior to the sale of the timeshare and this money could not be deducted from the sales price after the sale was finalized.
BBB found Global Trading Company provided BBB with fraudulent names of company officers and licensing information. Global Trading Company is not a licensed real estate or property management company in Colorado. The name Global Trading Company was taken from another registered business involved in import/exports. The name of the purposed licensed realtor in Colorado, Joseph Mack was fraudulently used. Joseph Mack is not involved in timeshare resales, nor does he work for Global Trading Company. BBB found the address advertised on the website does not belong to this company. Second, BBB found the photos associated with the testimonials were lifted from other websites.
Please note consumers who are interested in selling their timeshares in Mexico or elsewhere should never have to pay taxes and fees up front to the buyer or their agent. If you owe money on a loan associated with your time share, you should pay your loan company directly, not the real estate company or escrow company. In addition, you will not be asked to pay for any fee to receive any kind of restitution for this fraud.
If you are a victim of this crime, please file a report with the FBI at www.ic3.gov and FTC at www.ftc.gov as well as www.econsumer.gov. BBB also encourages you to file a Scam Tracker Report at www.bbb.org/scamtracker to share your experience and warn others.
