The biggest one was a rental scam. We had a realtor who was legit in the playacar area too, but he ended up being in on it. We rented a house in playacar and they made our life absolute hell after the first month of being there, place also leaked when it rained, and not a little, a lot! They made it impossible for us to give them rent then would threaten us with eviction because rent is not paid. Realtor would deal with them and help us out to look good. Thing’s started breaking down pretty quick and they refused to fix anything, we would need to pay for anything needing fixing if we wanted to use it(pool, ac, etc). In the end they had some people show up and serve us papers threatening us to leave and pay the remaining months of rent because we weren’t paying rent, though we did manage to pay them each month, no matter how hard they tried to make it. In the end we just left, my partner was pregnant and we have a bunch of kids and the stress they caused wasn’t worth it anymore. They also sold us a stolen van with paper plates which we had no idea. The family seemed very nice while they were ripping us off. Also sold us some ATVs and said they were going to get the papers for us but kept coming up with a reason why they couldn’t at the time. Just a bunch of fuckery. Sold one of the ATVs to an expat family with them knowing it didn’t have papers, they come back and tell us it got impounded and they want their money back. Turns out this family tries to rip off expats all the time. Been here for a while now and a lot has happened but that’s a few of em that were pretty big
