Timeshare buying scam- watch for "Albert Brown" or "Judy Boulay" (by R P.):

Upon receipt, I would need you to deposit the check, funds should be available immediately, I would need you to deduct your Ernest deposit of $500, this is to affirm my willingness and seriousness to buy this property and fend off other offers while closing processes are arranged by my broker. Then, forward the balance $2400 to Mr Samuel Kaplan as his fees for your timeshare closing and escrow charges whenever he gets in touch with you. It is my assumption that Samuel will provide additional instructions on how to get the fees to him. Albert
This is a new form of timeshare scam similar to the Nigerian scam. If anybody buys this hogwash then they get what they deserve.
