Re: vacation sales and marketing scam

[Q=conradr4] I haven't yet had the time to search the entire forum--but has anybody ever been contacted by "Luxury Condos International" located in Wilmington, DE with an interested party in purchasing your timeshare unit? They claim that they only deal with corporations, and my timeshare at Vacation Villages at Parkway in Kissimmee, Fl.can be sold to an interested corporation they are in contact with. In my probing, I have now found that they really want a one time service fee of $1996.64 upfront prior to any further action. An obvious scam--but how do they maintain the veil of credibility with their website, etc??[/Q] If they ask for an upfront fee then they're a scam. Anyone can build a website these days. Just because a scammer can put together a polished, authentic looking website along with bogus information and bogus referrals means absolutely nothing . Never, ever pay a large upfront fee to list your timeshare with any (socalled) resale company.
