Timeshare Scams and Fraud

I have been defrauded into paying $1,500 for the promise of selling my Timeshare by Executive Travel Management in a Timeshare resale scam in the state of Florida. Consumers are losing thousands of dollars.

I was initially contacted by Mr. Ken Bartholomew on July 2, 2012 on this matter, from Executive Travel Management 1583 E Silverstar Rd. Ste 254 Ocoee, Fl 34761 (407) 520-5946. He indicated that he had a buyer for my Timeshare and put me in contact with Mr. Murphy the buyer.

$1300 was paid in advance of receiving a promised sales contract for my Manhattan Club, NYC, time share in May 2012.

In August the calls of assurance ceased....it is now November and I have heard no word of the "impending" sale.

Is this company legitimate?? Has anyone out there had a favorable outcome from them?? The website seems ok and the people have been great keeping me informed every step of the way. However, I am still waiting for the deal to be completed, and it is now going on 5 months. I am told there are a few stumbling blocks slowing the final papers.

Should I worry??
