Susan Felarca of DR Consultants, Coastal Travel Susan 'Con Artist Felarca scammed me for $41K+ Phoenix Arizona

There is no truth to any of Mr. Ron Padgett's claims.  Coastal Vacations is an Association governed by a Board of Directors, they do not have a corporate headquarters.  No one voted for my business to be "shut down."  In a recent conversation with my director, an original Board Member, he stated that he had never heard of Mr. Padgett's claims before.  He explained that all  complaints must be presented in writing and maintained that, to date, there had been no such correspondence received by them (the Board of Directors) from Mr. Padgett.  As a correction and an update to Mr. Ron Padgett's false claims: October, 2015, the Office of the Attorney General of Arizona, never had a need to investigate my business once I submitted over sixty pages of email correspondences with Mr. Padgett in response to his false claims against me and my business.  The evidence I presented to them included abusive and threatening emails written by Mr. Padgett to me.  The Office of the Attorney General of Arizona deemed and upheld that my contracts with Mr. Ron Padgett were legitimate.  I am confident that my evidence against Mr. Ron Padgett's false claims will stand.

The bottom line is: I gave Felarca upfront funds as She had directed and I got absolutely nothing in return, zilch! What does that say, that says to me, She's a d* scammer, a crook! I gave Her upfront funds in the amount of $41K+ thru credit card charge ups, wire to wire trfs, etc. She also said She would double my investment to $82k+, which never happened. When I ask her to help me with the credit card bills rolling in that I could not afford. She refused to help, what does that tell you. It tells me she's a con artist, a crook. I had to go thru a Consumer Counseling Service because I had a hard time paying the bills monthly. I also was close to bankruptcy! She knew all this but refused to come to my aid. She abandoned me, is that the trademarks of a leader, helle no!  I talk to a fellow Director that knows her and He said that was not protocol in Coastal Vacations  He told me to try & get my money back ASAP, knowing that this is not the way Coastal Vacation Directors act. He says She was harboring on illegal and unethical behavior. One of the Board of Directors told me they voted to shut her down, Corporate said no. The reason, She brings in a lot of money to Corporate. I have been trying to get my money back that She stole from me. That's what I been trying to do ever since. Felarca makes a ton of money most of that is from scamming folks like you & me.She ask me to always trust her, I did, because She was suppose to be my leader and her committment to me was suppose to be steadfast. She was a poor example of a Leader and also a poor example of a Director. I know what it takes to lead, having led soldiers in the U.S. Army for abouit 15 years of my 21 year Army career. She was suppose to train me to become a future Director, her training was incomplete and lacked substance. She was a poor example of a leader as well. Folks, avoid her at all cost! She insinuates I am A Real Estate investor; I do have rental houses but I break even on those each month. I bought those as I moved around the country as A 'GI' so I was not an investor per se. Lastly I would not want Felarca in my foxhole gurading my butte, She would either stabb me in the back or shoot me in the back, 1 or the other. Folks take to heart what I've said. The Atty Gen's of Fla. & Az are investigating her. I will be appearing on a TV program in Orlando in about 2 months to tell all that I know abouit Susan Felarca the crook, hopefully the word will get out! Thx to all f/ listening. Ole Sarge.

"After WF (his bank) investigated her, I was contacted by them (WF) in July 2015 again, and they said Felarca provided evidentary (sp) evidence that proved she was legit.  In late July, WF sent me a letter stating that they were closing the cases."  This is a quote from Mr. Padgett in another written complaint about me.

I am a current active member with Coastal Travel.  I quickly became a Platinum Director when I first started with Coastal Travel in 2005.  My Director is a Board Member.  Coastal Travel is an association governed by a Board of Directors. No one approached me about any of Mr. Padgett's complaints.  

Mr. Padgett is not a victim.  He is a real estate investor who also authored a book.  And most importantly, he knows the truth.  

He just plain would not train or work.  I have written documentation of my trainings with Mr. Padgett and his emails expressing appreciation to me. However, I also have communications attempting to encourage him to continue to train and follow my direction, totaling over 60 pages of proof. 

There is no telling how far he could have gone if he just tried.  For me, it has been quite sad to read his recent writings compared to the gifted and kind individual who I interviewed in August, 2014.

In his complaints, he did not provide documentation to support his claims.  I did submit such documentation in my response to his claims and it was determined by the legal department of my merchant account and his bank that I was legitimate, twice.

With that said, I forgave Mr. Padgett at the time of his first inappropriate email to me.  To this day, I have offered to continue to work with him.  And whichever way he decides, he will remain forgiven by me.
