Anyone who knows me knows I don’t like/use absolutes. However, in this case let me be perfectly clear: No one who is legitimate will EVER cold call you and tell you they want to buy your #timeshare.
If you think you see a scam, talk with someone. Chances are your story will help you and others spot and avoid the scam. Then report it to the Federal Trade Commission. Watch this video to learn more: https://t.co/Yipqx3Ll7e

Tomorrow in the #timeshare blog: To end 2022, I’ll share an important piece that will have my detractors from both sides wringing their hands. It’s a good one!
Don’t believe everything you see. Scammers are great at mimicking official seals, fonts, and other details. Just because a website or email looks official does not mean that it is.
@Davidlaz@KTLA Truly baffling that anyone would fall for such a scam. But then again, I deal with people all the time who believe utter nonsense from someone who claims to be able to get them out of their #timeshare.
@Davidlaz Could I like this any more than I do? No I could not. So glad that Little Lupin and Sora now seem to be buddies! Happy Holidays to your whole family.
Salespeople who sell #timeshare as an investment should be fired in my opinion. Consumers who purchase a #timeshare as an investment should get a smack on the head. Also in my opinion.
There’s a FB page dedicated to ‘#timeshare cancellation information’ and while that’s sad on its merits, I have to say it’s absolutely hysterical reading the scam companies going after each other. Remember that a #timeshare is governed by one, or more, legal contracts.
It never ceases to astonish me how many people fall for scams that use the word free. There are 3 other words that people need to avoid. Do you know what the are!
