Timeshare Scams and Fraud



Complaints  >   Resort Rental, LLC/Holding Village, LLC Company

I received an email with an attractive offer to sell my timeshare in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico. They sent transfer contract documents and other legal documents for escrow account. All documents were very well redacted and all websites seemed valid ones. Later they asked me to sent a wire transfer to a Mexican company to cover title search and transfer fees for US$750.00. Days later they requested another payment, which was never mentioned before, for US$2,000 to cover some Mexican taxes. I contacted timeshare lawyers in Mexico and they confirmed it is a scam scheme. No upfront payments are required to be made by seller. And Mexican authorities do not charge any fees, taxes or penalties for selling timeshares.

We were approached and asked if we wanted to sell our timeshare for a considerable amount of money. Since we are looking to travel to more destinations outside of what our timeshare allows, we considered the offer. We were sent a contract and then asked to wire money to Mexico to cover a title search. After doing more research, we are pretty sure these individuals are operating quite an elaborate fraud scheme, using similar names/websites to legitimate companies. Upon researching, we have found other companies in the past that appear to be related to these two that are now "out of business." Again, we have not confirmed this is a scam, but all events point to one.
