US Sanctions Target Mexican Cartel and Timeshare Fraud Schemes
TL;DR Summary
The U.S. Department of the Treasury has sanctioned four Mexican individuals and 13 companies linked to timeshare fraud in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, which is controlled by the violent CJNG cartel. These schemes target U.S. victims, especially the elderly, through complex scams involving false offers and impersonations, generating significant revenue for CJNG, which also engages in drug trafficking and other illicit activities. The sanctions aim to disrupt CJNG's diverse revenue streams and protect U.S. citizens from fraud.
