I booked a apartment for Barcelona via the Internet page www.vipspaintravel.com (not existing any longer) and paid the money upfront based on the signed contract of the agency Dream Travel Barcelona to a Privatperson in Madrid (called Karen Franchesca Chavez Falconi). No contact since 1 week + no communication to anybody possible + the Internet page doesn´t exist any longer.
The contact Name was Sara Garcia - the Name is sililar to another mentioned scam in the Forum unter www.exclusivespaintour.com !!!
My bank Manager is informed but if the amount was already credited to the spanish account is it gone. A announcement at the Police will follow right now. Any further things i can do?
