Missouri Attorney General issued the following announcement on July 6.
Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt announced that his office has filed a lawsuit against Brian Scroggs and the following timeshare exit companies under his control: Vacation Consulting Services LLC, VCS Communications, LLC, The Transfer Group, LLC, and Real Travel L.L.C.
The lawsuit alleges that timeshare exit company employees, at the direction of Scroggs, solicited large sums of money from customers on the promise to either transfer or terminate consumer timeshare interests within one year or Scroggs’ companies would buy out the interests themselves. On numerous occasions, despite payments from consumers, Scroggs and his companies failed to provide the promised relief.
In addition to promising consumers relief from their time share burdens, the lawsuit alleges that, at different times, Scroggs and his timeshare exit groups instructed clients to cease making maintenance payments on their timeshares because the exit groups would cover the costs themselves. However, Scroggs and the exit groups did not make those payments as promised. As a result, many customers have found themselves in arrears with their respective timeshare holding companies.
“The Missouri Attorney General’s Office is dedicated to protecting consumers, and whenever we can take action to hold those seeking to defraud Missourians accountable, we will,” said Attorney General Schmitt.
