Re: point rental liquidators (by Patricia L.):

My husband and I were scammed by these people in March, 2012. We have two timeshares and only attended the "free lunch" because we were told that RCI wanted to inform their members about the law suit results. We met with Andrew Lauer who briefly explained what had happened to RCI. Our timeshares points rarely get completely used, so we were quite interested in his proposition of selling our points to them. After we were given lunch. Andrew returned to firm up the details, and very coyly introduced Sunset Harbor Resort. We told him we weren't interested in another timeshare, just selling our points. Andrew then explained that he could only buy our points if we were Sunset Harbor owners. He explained that it wouldn't be a financial problem or us since we could charge the price on a Discover card, then, when our check arrived, we could just pay off the Discover card and have money leftover to pay our other two resort's maintenance fees. We were told the check would be cut sometime between October & December. December 31 came and went and, of course, no check arrived.

I have talked with the Attorney General's Office in my state and a form which we need to complete is being sent. I am not sure anything can be done, but there were a lot of couples older than my husband and me at that meeting, and I am sure some of them were bilked as we were.

I will also send our complaint to the Texas and Nevada addresses shared by reginaldt11 and to DiscoverCard, RCI, and VSI. They are all complicit in this scam.

Thank you to all who have posted.
