Just called me to sell my time share. asked for 2500.00 for 6month add placement. Need to respond in 48 hrs to respond
If he had a firm offer on property respond in 24hrs or no deal. Would cost 2500.00 more to re open contract.
Needed card number to complete DEAL.... Did not offer paper contract... First a lady takes some information then transfer to sales rep.

A Clint Brown called and claimed to represent "Interval Advertising"..I assumed part of the timeshare company," Interval International' He said that his company could rent each of my 2 timeshare weeks in Aruba for $2300.00 ea. ( way over what the market is) All that I had to do was pay either $595.00 for this year, or pay $1195.00 for two years...wanted my Credit Card info...would supply nothing in writing to support until I gave him my CC info.
The keys to recognizing the scam: The guy was really stupid, $2300.00 per week way over what market is, too aggresive in attemptimg to get my credit card info and offered nothing in writing.
In the end he hung up....guy was far from being a con ARTIST...he was really ignorant

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the nation's consumer protection agency, is warning consumers to be on the alert for scam artists posing as debt collectors. It may be hard to tell the difference between a legitimate debt collector and a fake one. Sometimes a fake collector may even have some of your personal information, like a bank account number. A caller may be a fake debt collector if he:
?is seeking payment on a debt for a loan you do not recognize;
?refuses to give you a mailing address or phone number;
?asks you for personal financial or sensitive information; or
?exerts high pressure to try to scare you into paying, such as threatening to have you arrested or to report you to a law enforcement agency.
If you think that a caller may be a fake debt collector:
?Ask the caller for his name, company, street address, and telephone number. Tell the caller that you refuse to discuss any debt until you get a written "validation notice." The notice must include the amount of the debt, the name of the creditor you owe, and your rights under the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.
If a caller refuses to give you all of this information, do not pay! Paying a fake debt collector will not always make them go away. They may make up another debt to try to get more money from you.?Stop speaking with the caller. If you have the caller's address, send a letter demanding that the caller stop contacting you, and keep a copy for your files. By law, real debt collectors must stop calling you if you ask them to in writing.
?Do not give the caller personal financial or other sensitive information. Never give out or confirm personal financial or other sensitive information like your bank account, credit card, or Social Security number unless you know whom you're dealing with. Scam artists, like fake debt collectors, can use your information to commit identity theft ? charging your existing credit cards, opening new credit card, checking, or savings accounts, writing fraudulent checks, or taking out loans in your name.
?Contact your creditor. If the debt is legitimate ? but you think the collector may not be ? contact your creditor about the calls. Share the information you have about the suspicious calls and find out who, if anyone, the creditor has authorized to collect the debt.
?Report the call. Contact the FTC and your state Attorney General's office with information about suspicious callers. Many states have their own debt collection laws in addition to the federal FDCPA. Your Attorney General's office can help you determine your rights under your state's law.

Some strange guy Robert Johnson telling me about check fraud that will be released to the state for further progressing. He never even mentioned where he was calling from which makes it more suspicous. I haven't written a check in years. There's so much fraud out here that I don't trust anyone. Odd.

called my cell phone saying Bank Fraud Division, time sensitive that will be turned over to state. No idea what they are talking about! Just before this call got a call from 'unknown' number making threating comments related to identity theft...half the people she listed I hadn't even spoken to in years!!
