Mexico is full of timeshare scams

cpounds · 07-16-2007, 02:00 PM

Go visit mexicotimesharefraud.com for more information We were scammed last week in Cabo San Lucas. It is illegal to sell a timeshare and be made to sign a paper that you can not cancel within 5 days and get your money back. That is what happened to us. We cancelled after 3 days on site and they refused to cancel (Casa Dorada at Medana Beach). This is a new, being build timeshare and they used bait and switch to get us to sign. They refuse to give us our money back but it is illiegal according to Mexican law. If anyone else has had this experience, let me know.

Buyer beware!
