Re: Would you pay an upfront fee to a real estate company to sell your home? (by Nori N.):
That's a *great* analogy jayjay! The problem is that these scammers have the upper hand given that you don't actually live in the house year-round. The most you go to your timeshare is probably one or two weeks a year. Add to the fact that many people who even come in contact with these scumbags (like myself) got suckered into buying one in the first place and now realize they have a huge burden and are desperate to unload it, it's very easy for someone to fall into that trap. :( Guilty. :'(
