I was contacted in the mid to late January 2013 by Nick Diaz of Continental Property Solutions out of Memphis, TN saying they had an executive of a corporation wanted to rent 10 weeks of my timeshare for a corporation meeting and they where offering $1800.00 for each week totally $18000.00 and wanted to know if I would be interested. I told Nick I would have to think about it. A few days later I received a call from Bill Hastings, manager saying the executive needed to know as the meeting was in April and they needed to get the transaction completed ASAP.

A man said he had a buyer for our timeshare. He used a reputable agent's name with reputable company. The contract said we would pay 10% binder or earnest money that we would get refunded at time of sale. Said that binder and all buyer's expenses and sale price had been deposited in escrow and they were just waiting for us to sign the contract. The contract included an agreement to give them power of attorney. Who knows what he had in mind to do with that! The fraud even sent me a link to the R.E. license information. Everything seemed to check out. I used the Internet (instead of his link) to search for the real estate license and got the TRUE phone number and talked to the TRUE real estate agent who's name had been misused. So glad I didn't sign anything or send any money!

The address listed is a UPS mailbox, since sending money for title and transfer fees, i can't get ahold of john or the woman who was buying my timeshare. i also sent money to rita in florida because john said that is where the main company is listed. there is also no business license on record in ft. worth for this company. This is fraud.

Erick Bessley contacted me offering unreasonable big price for my timeshare(which is already suspicious).He explained me that for international companies it is a tax relive money. After signing contact, his manager Eddie Dawson, told me that I have to wire money to pay Mexican Government for the property that located in United States(which is double BS). I contacted lawyer specialized in International tax law, he told me there is no such law. I confronted Eddie Dawson and he was threating me with the authorities action because I sighed a contact. Please, whoever is reading this complain, stay away from Performance asset management.

I was contacted by Mr Kimble with an offer to sell my time share. After several phone conversations I an much repurchase in the Internet idle sided that I would not send him money upfront because he insisted I send it Western Union after which the money is non retrievable. He would not accept a cashiers check from my bank.
If you look at there web site the pictures of there office (photo shopped) shows them in a high rise office in downtown someplace. There address, according to Google Earth, is 63 blocks from downtown at a place called Ice house. A restraint! At 6387 Camp Bowie Blvd. Ft Worth Tx. 76116. Maybe mr Kimble has an office there or is operating from a booth in the back on his cellphone. Either way it is not the office in the picture on the web site.
