Today I had a gentleman named Henry James call me from Royal Resorts in Las Vegas. He stated that they had a company that wanted to buy 25 weeks at the timeshare in Florida that I own at. He stated that they would offer me 41,400 dollars for my contract. All I had to do was send them 2000 to hold in escrow for title searches, etc and I would get that back with the purchase check.

Even it this was legit, which it isn't, title searches, etc cost not where near $2000. Probably in the range f $300-$400. If he calls back, tell him to send you a purchase and sales agreement with a 20% down payment. Oh and that you are planning to use an escrow company of YOUR choice. See how quick they hang up.
