Timeshare Closing Reseller Scam

Business & Finance

I own a timeshare, and in the past have advertised it for sale with an online company.

I began receiving calls from an Erica Baryani in early April who left several messages in regards to having a buyer for my property and that she was the Senior Closing Agent for her company and needed to reach me urgently.

I returned her calls, she explained her company only handles closings between buyers and sellers in regards to time share properties. She further suggested she had buyers who wanted my time share for just over $19,000 which is unbelievable given the economy and the value of time share properties.

All I had to do is wire the $700 closing closts the buyer was short, but I would be reimbursed at the closing. I asked for paperwork via email. On 4/19 Erica sent a fairly lengthy legal looking document via email with all the details she described by phone.

I had a lawyer review the documents, and was told buyers always pay closing closts at the closing and there is never anything upfront paid by the sellers... I was told to ignore future correspondance, phone calls and naturally not to wire any money.

This is simply a heads up for anyone receiving calls from this company or others like it, to beware of the scam.
