I was contacted on 9-18-2012 by universaltimesharesa saying they had a Canadian buyer for my time share. The buyer offered $185,000 ( about $25,000 more than its worth ). They said they needed $1800 to lock in the offer.
I told them I needed some time to think about it. They called each day after for the next 3 days wanting $1800 to lock in offer before he changes his mind.
I did some research and found out they were trying to scam me.
The names of the sales people that called me were Omar De-La Cruise and Timothy Johnson. Omar called back on 9-21- 2012 wanting me to lock in offer. I told him that I found information that he was trying to scam me. He said he was not and that they settled all complaints against them. I then told him I was not Interrested and hung up on him. I did not get scammed.
