Sunshine Promotions, LLC Response – FBI Investigation
August 5, 2010

Sunshine Promotions, LLC, would like to take this opportunity to respond to the April 14, 2010 posting on the Complaints Board alleging that Sunshine Promotions, LLC is under FBI Investigation. While we initially did not respond, despite the inflammatory nature of the posting, we have begun the process to better understand how we as a company can dispute such allegations. First and foremost, Sunshine Promotions, LLC, operating in Washington, DC since 2006 is not and has never been under FBI investigation. It is never the practice of the FBI to publish a current or existing investigation in a public forum such as Complaints Board.

In our own cursory initial investigation we found other prominent and both highly visible and highly regarded companies such as Washington Gas and Pay Pal to have complaints alleging that they too are under FBI Investigation on the Complaints Board site, with no basis of truth. In addition, we have filed a complaint with IC3, the Internet Crime Complaint Center, which is an agency designed as a partnership between the FBI, the National White Collar Crime Center (NW3C) and the Bureau of Justice Assistance. In our complaint we at Sunshine Promotions have expressed our sincere concern that the damaging nature of such a slanderous posting (as the one of April 14th) which is completely unfounded, has untold ramifications as well as being potentially damaging to our reputation as a legitimate business in Washington, DC. The entire April 14th posting by an anonymous author is false and therefore it is our intention to continue to pursue the identity of the author, and take the necessary legal and civil action to have the posting removed and the author brought to justice. We have retained the legal services of a prominent law firm in DC, to ensure that we maintain proper marketing and sales practices at all times.

The Complaints Board is a social networking consumer website to which anyone can post comments regarding a company or business. Under the Complaints Board Legal Information portion of their website, they make it clear that they do not take responsibility for these postings, nor do they investigate their validity and view it as a free forum for consumers to openly share their complaints.

Also, Sunshine Promotions, LLC nor the owner/operators or staff are facing criminal charges. Again, another very damaging, false and libelous accusation. Further, Sunshine Promotions is not under any formal investigation by organizations listed in the postings such as through the Craigslist Fraud Center, NAAG, or the FTC.

We openly encourage and welcome the opportunity to address the concerns of all that attend our presentations and those that make the decision to join as a travel club member. It is unfortunate that the author of the April 14 posting has remained anonymous, not allowing us the opportunity to assist them or to contact them regarding their service needs. We also welcome the opportunity to address any concern from those that may require our assistance in the proper forum.

I received a gold crown membership in September 2010 through Sunshine Promotions, LLC and have not received anything to date after several unsuccessful attempts to find condos and other properties near vacation spots my family wanted to attend all For nearly $7000. The property inventory that might be available through their service was not available and not even at the 3 to 5 star properties that were promised . Can anyone tell me if people have recovered their money from these scam artists? Thank you and good luck in your pursuit.
