RESORTCOM/GRAND SOLMAR: ODD YEAR TIME SHARE SCAM
If this happened to me, it can happen to anyone. I am over 50 and I have never purchased a timeshare in my life. I have been on active military duty for two years. My husband and I take a well deserved vacation to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. At the airport we are immediately - actually throughout our stay we were harassed by these timeshare groupies - approached by a female, as we are trying to avoid the groupies and she asked if we needed a rental car - I thought she was a rental agent turns out to be one of these groupies - she was really helpful and so we agreed to sit through a presentation and help her out. She told us how she was a single mother and on and on... We arrive at the presentation and they immediately take your drivers license and want your credit card, etc... and, of course, the drinks start flowing.
As we listen and venture through the resort, which was stunning - I thought for the first time in my life this could be a good thing with retirement less than 10 years out. Well it was not a good thing - they fraudulent represent the terms and conditions of the agreement and we learn later that what they represented as maintenance fees being due every other year -odd years. We were told that we had exclusive right to one week a year during the time period we selected and we even discussed options to roll one year over to the next if we didn't use them - bank them is what Dan the Con Man tells us. The maintenance fee trick came in when I initially declined based on the nightmare stories I was told about enormous fee increases. So Dan deal is I tell you what you don't have to pay maintenace fees annually, I am going to make you a deal you can't refuse: I'm upgrading you to Platinum membership, which entitles you to a whole lot of stuff that now means "NOTHING". The whole process last hours and then a bottle of champagne and finally off to sign the contract that you don't see until you get into a small room and the guy across from you rushes through the paper work and states the "use for a period of 23 odd years" means 46 years until 2060. So now they say that is not the case! We can only use the time share in 2015, 2017, 2019 - are you kidding me! I thought I covered everything - this was the smoothest operation I have ever encountered. I am so embarassed - I have a law degree and I should have known better. Albiet I have never practice contract law, I can absolutely swear that there was absolutely no meeting of the minds! Under contract law, this contract is null and void but I don't know how to assert my claim in Mexico or in the US for that matter...Anyone out there have any advice or knowledge of Mexican contract law?

I've spent a lot of money and i was scammed by other companies trying to cancel my timeshare. My advice is that if you're going to hire a company to help you with the problem, DO NOT PAY ANYTHING UPFRONT, because it use to be a fraud. I did a research on internet and i found some interesting articles, i recommend you to read this one:
