My aunt was contacted by a company who told her she will get rich by renting out her timeshare, she recieved a quit claim deed in the mail for her to sign with witnesses present they mention she'd be receiving 10.00 for transfer of property which she'd be relinquishing all rights to. In addition they asked her for her credit card number and she gave to them over the phone. I told her to cancel her card A.S.A.P. Does this sound like a scam?
You really have to think about it. Why do you need a company to rent out your timeshare when you can just do it yourself. And credit card #? You should also make sure that the form she filled out didn't include her Social Security number. If so you may want to put a fraud alert on her credit bureaus. _________________ Scott McKay

Your aunt is really lucky to have you there to help her out with this, these type of predators seek out and take advantage of the elderly, some lose their entire life savings or a very big chunk of change to these sleaze balls.
I would like to know the name of the company also, I think they all should be exposed so that others don't fall for this scam. Thank you for sharing your story, hopefully it will make people more aware.
Please get the name of this company because we do not want them to bother anyone else and we can get the word out through the web. _________________ Cliff Pape
