3 months ago
Just prior to trial, ten individual and corporate defendants agreed to settle Federal Trade Commission charges that they participated in, controlled, or illegally benefitted from the allegedly deceptive marketing of the “Sanctuary Belize” real estate development in remote southern Belize, including charges that they deceived U.S. consumers regarding the amenities that the development would have, the time in which it would be completed, and the ability to re-sell lots. According to the FTC, the Sanctuary Belize scheme took in more than $120 million, primarily from American consumers.
