Was contacted by this company out of Las Vegas, NV as to whether or not I wanted to sell my Westgate Timeshare in Kissimmee, Fla.
They had a buyer that had visited there and wanted to purchase one. At the time and still am trying to sell it.
They faxed me paperwork about the name of the buyer and the amount I was to pay. They had all the information; which I later found out that anyone can go down to the court and see deeded property for a small fee.
I sent them a voided check made out to them and they kept in contact with me for approximately 3 wks and then all the phones were disconnected.
I contacted the NV police, AG, an office for scams (FBI) Better Business Bureau, SunTrust bank where the check was deposited with no help. Everyone said that it was scam and there was nothing they could do. If I had used a credit card I might have been able to recoup most of my money but since I gave them a check, I was out of luck.
So now I'm still paying a mortgage on the timeshare to include back taxes and maintenance fees and paying back monies I borrowed to do this transaction.
3/24 Check # 4739 $1,850.00 deposited electronically into SunTrust
