The concept becomes even more attractive when you are told that you can exchange your vacation with other people. You can also let out your week and receive rent for it. If it sounds too good to be true, it is. Investors are shorn of their illusions very early in the game. These people resort to all kinds of dirty marketing tactics to mislead potential investors.
Great care is taken to gloss over the details and fine print about the investment.
Instead, potential investors are shown photographs of celebrities ostensibly enjoying themselves at resorts owned by the timeshare company. The roster of crimes does not end here. Investors get to see the contract only after all instalments have been paid. By then, it is too late. If they demand that membership be cancelled, the demand is ignored.
