(I had paid them $395 to try to sell my timeshare in Mexico.) I found it very ironic that they were calling me as I was on the computer looking up info on how to sell a timeshare. He said he had no way of knowing that I was on my computer and that I was on his list of clients of Vaca. Mktg. He told me it would take 35% for his legal team if they got me a refund. I gave him no information, but he will call me again on wednesday. I think this stinks as well. I found no website either. Let us know if you have any followup conversations with these people.
One scam company going after another scam company, that's funny .... if they ask for a large upfront fee, then they're a scam same as upfront fee resale companies.
