These guys are shady and very persistant. They offered to "rent" my unused timeshare weeks for what sounded like a hellova deal. I only had to pay a $680 fee and would be guaranteed $2400 back once the rental was completed. I heard nothing for weeks, and every time I called they said there was no record of the transaction. I had the proof in my credit card statement, but every request to speak to a supervisor was left with a promise to have someone call back... Never happened.
So, these bozos come back to me almost a year later and want to sell the timeshare for me. They offer me a pretty good sounding price for time I have been too busy to use. And it would only cost me $1700. When I called them on the carpet for the lapse in the last transaction, they say they will look into it.
They fax me pages of stuff for my commitment to this new deal. When they keep calling, I tell them, yes, I got it, but I am not throwing good money after bad; and I don't have $1700! SO, to make nice, the representative immediately says he can cut that fee in 1/2! AND he can credit me for the money already paid. SO, for under $200 bucks I can get $30,000 back! What a deal! No freaking way!!! And every time this guy calls, he is more and more insistant. He calls repeatedly at awkward hours (I am on the West Coast) and starts to really tick me off. After telling him to blow several time, he has finally stopped calling. I am still out my $680, but I suppose that is the cost of being gullible.
Don't deal with these guys. What a scam.
