August Newsletter Q&A: What To Do When Contacted by A Scammer (by Alisa S.):
Timeshare Crusader Lisa Ann Schreier answers the following question in this month's newsletter:
We were recently approached by a buyer interested in purchasing our timeshare. We'd agreed on a price and were ready to start the closing when our buyer suddenly had to leave town. He sent us a check for $3,900 to hold our timeshare, but asked us to keep $2,900 and send a $1,000 check to his broker. Something seems fishy to me. What do you suggest?
