Yes they did, the villa owner also got involved as apparently he owned several properties in Emerald islands and they had used pictures of his villas to advertise rental villas although he had nothing to do with them!
Sadly our friend's daughter booked it all without their imput as initially they were going on their own. They then decide to go too and by that time the villa was booked and they rang and offered to get their park tickets at a 'great price'! Because they had spoken to them etc. they trusted them and arranged for them to buy, disney, universal and bush garden tickets for 7 people

How are these people still free to scam people? Either the police are useless at their jobs or worse, they don't care.

These people get away with it (and Marion's activities in Florida go back a long way before 2011) because the people who get conned are mainly more concerned about getting their money back than stopping Marion, Kelly and their like being free to do it again, under other names from some other places, at some time in the future, to other people.
How many of the victims have ever gone to the Florida police with reports ? Very few. Were they willing to provide testimony in a Florida Court ? Even fewer. So meanwhile Marion gets away with it because she knows that Brits in Florida trust fellow Brits in Florida and they are an easy target - especially when they are looking for 'a great deal' ! That's why she advertised on Gumtree - because she knew that all the people 'looking for a great deal' would be shopping on there - even for a villa holiday in Florida with the considerable sums of money involved ! "Lovely jubbly" as Del boy used to say ! Anybody who has been a recent victim can reply to this post and I will provide them with the contact details for the Osceola County Sheriffs Office who are now handling the case. But this is NOT about getting your money back, that is now long gone. It's all about GETTING EVEN and making sure that this doesn't happen again to someone else ! Edited at 06:26 PM. |

No clue, sorry. I would call in the daytime though. Most detectives, except homicide, work normal daytime hours, there's no one there 24/7.
