January 18, 2025 at 5:36 pmThis happened in October, we were scammed by a team called Wander Vacations in Calangute, Goa. They promised a travel club membership and they had good reviews and they promised a good stay in Mumbai as weβre visiting for a conference. That didnβt happen and then we got to know that they only have 42 sub standard resorts which we thought we can still book and avail the amount we deposited. But none of the partners who spoke to us was not answering the calls. Booking number keeps rejecting all the calls, and now all the Google reviews are bad. I should have thought twice when they have a shady website and when they show the top notch hotel around the world initially.They run the scam under a registered company called JAM DESTINATIONS PVT LTD.Β
The thing is whatever they said was all verbally. Nothing is there in agreement. Fellow redditors, help me with a legal approach. I’m ready to complaint. When I posted this in Goa community, they suggested to go to consumer court and file a complaint. Does this come under that? I have their names, pictures and phone numbers.

OP
January 18, 2025 at 5:59 pmThey approached us with scratch cards near a petrol bunk, and to get that prize, we should spent 1 hour in one of their properties, there hearing their product promotion to which we agreed, though we were hesitant. Even though when they introduced this club plans and saying continuously no, they were forcing us and never letting us leave. After less than a five minute tour of that hotel, the person who introduced himself as a trainee in this field lured us into a room where we saw three round tables with people discussing something. We were given a table and they started with the idea of secured, safer stay. They said their company, now in its initial stage has some listed properties which has the facilities of a one BHK. They started listing plans to join their membership by which we can access these hotels anytime in next five years without any other extra charges. They started with a plan amount of 7 Lakhs for a period of 10 years and upon denial they started introducing more and more plans that reached below 1 Lakh. Even after all those nearby tables emptied, they were totally killing us with their words and we were not in a mood to spend more time in there ( by then they spoke for atleast 2hrs) we agreed to pay 60k as card payment. Before payment, we were assured a stay in Mumbai in premium hotels like Novotel, Hyatt with a nominal amount. Next month, when we were planning for the stay in Mumbai, all we got was Excuses. We tried a lot to contact them for a stay, but we got none. One reason stated was that your five year plan starts by 2025 start. Now, once the new year started they have stopped taking our calls and some of their numbers are not even reachable. We have decided to move legally against these scammers. Kindly help us with the same.
