Villa Sul Mare yacht scam by Juan llimona

We happily booked the Villa Sul Mare yacht for one of our clients to enjoy a few days of yachting around Ibiza.

They yacht was paid for in full upfront plus the customary ADA to the owner and broker Juan llimona with phone number +34629717185 and Twitter profile: https://twitter.com/juanllimona

Days before scheduled departure we were told by the owner that the yacht had broken down and there were no possibility to use it as booked.

Nor was there any attempt in trying to arrange a replacement boat. Luckily we managed to book another boat ro keep the client happy.

However, owner and broker Juan llimona promised he would return the money paid which he never did and also stopped replying to messages and calls.

We will of course chase this money until rightfully returned but we would also like to issue a warning about this scammer and thief.
