I just wanted to post an update to my case against Boutique Resort La Jolla, Mazatlan, Mexico. I am continuing to work with PROFECO in Mexico City, in filing my consumer complaint for a full refund of my earnest money down payment in the amount of $6175.00. After reading all the travel forums and websites, and discovering just how many Americans have, and are undergoing this same dreaded experience, I sent a letter to President Calderone of Mexico. I have read a biography of this Harvard-educated man, and I decided that he should know, from a victim, just how one feels to be
treated, by some of the timeshare merchants in Mexico.
I told President Calderone my entire story, or should I say nightmare, of being lied to and defrauded by Boutique Resort La Jolla, and our salesman Mr. Fernando Lobato, on December 17, 2007. I informed President Calderone`
that I am just one of hundreds, or thousands of tourists, who let their "guards
down," while on vacation, and fall prey to unscrupulous timeshare salesmen, all saying, the same thing, "Let me make you a deal that you can't refuse!"
I was very moved by what I read in President Calderone's biography. I believe that he is a very just and honorable man. I am going to trust that he will have someone in his Executive Branch investigate these abuses of tourists in Mexico. If others would like to email President Calderone, I have listed the email address below.
