An Indonesian tour group contacted a local hotel establishment. This group then made arrangements and reservations in the amount of approximately $25,000.

A commission fee of approximately $3,800 was then paid to this group. When the reservation time came, no one showed up. The credit card authorization is now in question and the hotel has not received any funds.
