List of SCAM

The timeshare company will not charge them annual maintenance fees.

Most timeshare owners are expected to pay an annual maintenance fee, which increases substantially each year. This is often a deterrent to senior citizens who are on a fixed income. The timeshare salespeople claim that because they are seniors, they do not have to pay maintenance fees due to a special type of contract they will have. In some cases this is true, however, if a family member who is not a senior citizen inherits the membership, they will be required to pay an annual maintenance fee. In other cases, the promise of no maintenance fee is a lie that the timeshare scam salespeople use to entice seniors to purchase. The seniors are often shocked to receive a bill each year for several hundred dollars.
