Possible Scam - Direct Sales and/or Direct Sales Financial (by Nancy B.):

I received a call last evening from a rep from this company inquiring if we were interested in selling our timeshare. I received a follow up call today and spoke with Kolin Andrews who explained that Direct Sales - www.directtimesharesales.net - represented buyers mostly from Europe and an offer had been made on our timeshare (since last night--hmm).

I am sure this is a scam and am wondering if anyone else has been contacted by these people?

I was called today by "Direct Sales Financial" . The representative said they had a buyer for our Marriott timeshare. They saw it listed in the Condo Trader for $11,999 and were making an offer of $11,400.

I have lowered the price on that original ad of $11,999- 3 different times so very sceptical about when they saw the ad. Originally listed in 2005. Last price change was 11/8/05. Also said we could offer to sell them any banked weeks we had on the books.
