Did you have your timeshare on the market? Why would you send money to someone in advance to sell your timeshare? It is a common scam that has been around for years. The names of the company change, the people change, but the scam remains the same. Did they also ask you to send the funds via Western Union or Money Gram? That's also a huge red flag.
What to do? You can file a police report, but I don't think it will help get your money back. Just don't be so eager to send your money to a stranger that calls you out of the blue and asks for it.
