Is Punta Perla in the Domincian Republic one BIG scam? Dominican Watchdog is investigating it now!
Important Information update to this 5 months old article -Click hereto read about the new website established under puntaperla.org - Who is that ghost with a Euro 300 per month office address in Madrid?
Original article of July 2009:
Despite our letter to the responsiable behind the Punta Perla real estate development over 6 weeks ago has Dominican Watchdog not received any anwser to all our questions so we must advice that you do not invest in that project.
Here is a copy of our letter to the Punta Perla management. Please note that; HRH Prince Albert of Monaco is not as earlier proclaimed an investor in the Punta Perla real estate development project - See this link
The letter of MAY 12, 2009 was based on the fact that Dominican Watchdog has received a large amount of email from worried investors in Punta Perla, Punta Cana, Dominican Republic.
Please update me on the repeatedly postponed real estate development Punta Perla - investors are anxious to know the truth! I understand you are the person responsible for investor relations?
The official websites for www.puntaperla.com and www.puntaperlasales.com are both CLOSED!
Please make sure this email also reach Mr. Ricardo Miranda Miret , because I can not find contact details for him. Mr Miranda is extremely well known for leaving a lot of investors stranded in Spain. He has now unveiled a "new" development; Punta Perla with Prince Albert of Monaco in the Dominican Republic. Mr. Miranda also claims he returned the money to OceanView according to this article below. Dominican Watchdog has many questions for Mr Miranda!
The Official Receiver is conducting an investigation into the collapse of Oceanview Properties International Ltd, and a letter to creditors has been sent out with a request for all relevant information.
Staffordshire Police, the Serious Fraud Office and the City of London Police have been working closely with the Insolvency Service in respect of allegations made concerning the activities of the company and its officers. Further meetings between these agencies have been scheduled to review the findings and consider any evidence of criminal conduct within the UK.
Any creditor wishing to register their claim with the Insolvency Service should provide their details prior to the creditors meeting to be held on 5 June 2009.
They can do this either in writing to The Case Administrator, The Insolvency Service, Public Interest Unit (North), 3 Piccadilly Place, London Road, Manchester, M1 3BN, or by ringing 0161 234 8469 or by e-mailing piu.north@insolvency.gsi.gov.uk
In addition Dominican Watchdog has contacted www.emergingearth.com as they are still advertising the Punta Perla project on their website, despite the fact that not a single home has yet been build three years into the sale of the project. Emerging Earth is also mentioned in this document filed with the authorities in Canada against Paradiso Tropical SA and Mr. Ricardo Miranda: http://www.cudicbc.ca/pdf/enforcement/restate/redma20080514.pdf
Furthermore, I have researched more than 400 articles form the internet. The reading is NOT in favor of the Punta Perla development. I hope you have requisite news for all the investors?
Just one small quote among almost thousand in the singingpig forum: "i invested in punta perla and he stole over 250 thousand dollars from me. i contacted the F.B.I. and so far no luck. he scams 1000 investors, any one have any idea how and what to do. have a lawyer but i think all money is gone"
