This company, Dynasty Globe, baits senior citizens by sending postcards to you home offering a free cruise just for attending their seminar on travel discounts.  I don't have the postcard because they took it away from me at the seminar.  There are no other details on the postcard as to what they are offering or any surcharges for this cruise.  They operated at the Brownward Hotel, 3003 Brownwood Blvd., The Villages, FL. 32103.  This company operates like a time share, trying to get you to pay $13,000 up front for a year, promising you 5 vacations that would cost much more.  At the seminar, you don't have time to listen to them while doing any research on exactly what these vacations would cost.  Then they tried with 2 sales women to coerce us to give then our credit card to pay $13,000.  I refused. On the way out, I was given the enclosed form stating that I would have to pay the port charges, taxes, gratuities and a $99 processing fee.  No credit cards, only check or money order accepted.  They do this so you cannot dispute the charge and get your money back.  

I have attended several of these seminars and free lunches and dinners, and I can tell you they are targeting senior citizens only.  I never saw anyone under the age of 60 there.

After paying them the $98 activation fee, it took a month and many emails before I received yet another request by another company affiliated with them, Travel Advisors  386 252 2332, fax 386 761 6221, requesting yet another fee of $99, a deposit, which is only accepted by a cashier check or money order. Another way to keep my money that I can't dispute with a credit card.  No legitimate travel agency operates like this. They all take a credit card.   What both of these companies ( if they are 2 separate companies ) have in common is they request your money in check or bank withdrawal form so you can't get your money back, and they never answer their phone, only recorded messages when you call. another scam tactic.

This company and it's affiliates are running a scam operation on senior citizens.
