Former Travel Agent Faces Allegations of Scamming Victims Out of Nearly $50,000

February 28, 2024

Former travel agent Michelle Anthony faces mounting accusations of scamming individuals out of nearly $50,000.

Her committal hearing, originally scheduled for April 24, was adjourned as police gather evidence.

Anthony, owner of Michy D’s Travel Agency, faces at least four charges of fraudulent conversion.

Since news of the scam broke last year, more victims have come forward, alleging Anthony failed to fulfill ticket purchases and misappropriated funds.

She is already charged with defrauding one woman of $4,355.80 in November 2023.

Additionally, she faces charges for unlawfully converting $29,031.31 provided by the Government for personal use in August 2023, and for similar actions involving $1,500.00 entrusted to her by another woman in December 2023.

Another victim reportedly suffered losses totaling $12,650.00 between August and December 2023 due to her alleged fraudulent activities.

Antigua is full of scam artists. Even some of the banks and other so-called loan businesses are full of scamming employees…

Thus the reason I No longer belive in or use travel agents.

Travel agents always try to swindle, get discounts and behave entitled.

Lock her up and throw away the key. Make her an example.
