Received a phone call on November 29 from Tina Moore at ACCESS TRAVEL NETWORK with an offer to sell my "RCI Vacation Getaway" weeks. She claimed I had 12 of these weeks that were due to expire in December and they were trying to meet the rental needs of corporate clients for the upcoming businesses in 2013. She said she was working with RCI and had confirmed availability with them. However since these benefit weeks belonged to me, they "required" me to pay upfront for the booking fee of $149 per week for 12 weeks to release and reserve the unit from the RCI
inventory. They would arrange the rental with their client (taking a commission), and forward the net proceeds. First off, let me say right now that I was absolutely "stupid" to have considered this and letting this go as far as it did. I never received a contract. I totally took her of her word and had her charge to activation/booking fee. Well I received a call claiming to have rented my weeks and needing some documentary taxes paid. Which I did but this time I sent them cash through a local bank here. When I didn't hear from them I tried calling them with no way to even leave a message. I then contacted RCI directly and found out the this Access Travel Network (CTC) pulls off scams with the RCI vacation weeks. My credit card company will be handling the first part of the scam. I have to deal with the rest. This is clearly a scam!!!
