Scam Website:
They offered us a rental property in Truckee, CA but the details sounded way too good to be true. Offered us a 20% discount to make it super cheap for a luxury rental during hot dates in a peak season. Suspicious when they requested bank wire transfer and they\'re based in London, UK. Their web site says to like them on Facebook and Twitter but there\'s no reference on those sites at all to them.

Their name on web site and email was \"Your Holidays Rentals\" but the bank wire instructions gave a name of \"Pro Luxury Holidays\". Based on that name we found their scam reports on this site. Indeed they actually have at least two identical scam web sites:

Follow Ups/Extra Information. Most recent is listed first.
they offered an apartment for rental in New York, very nice, well located and reasonable price . then they sent a contract to sign and a bank account in UK, which made us hesitate. when we ask they said that their company is a "worldwide rental company" and "payment must be made by bank transfer to our main company office in United Kingdom". Then we look for the company name on scam reports and we found it was all a big fraud. The information they provide for the transfer is:
Receiver: Secrean Darius Receiver address: Flat 1 Central Heights, Manhattan Avenue, Watford, WD18 7AG, United Kingdom Sort Code: 207412 Account #: 23539490 SWIFT/BIC: BARCGB22 IBAN: GB55 BARC 2074 1223 5394 90 Bank Name: Barclays Bank Uk Bank Address: 221 Watling Street, Radlett, Hertfordshire, WD7 7AJ, United Kingdom

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell. And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
