After another week of over one hundred calls from worried timeshare owners, it is hard to believe that we are still talking about and dealing with timeshare scams in 2025. However, our cyber security department, insider knowledge and compelling evidence are closing in on those responsible for timeshare exit and claims fraud. Our online presence results in us getting to know the latest scams before anyone else. As such, we have prevented thousands of victims from falling for timeshare scams before it is too late and helped those who have, recover their money.
As evidenced in many of our previous articles, the latest scam to proliferate British shores is the timeshare maintenance fee scam. Past and present timeshare owners are led to believe that debt collectors are enforcing the payment of historical maintenance fees. 'Cold Calls' lead to Zoom calls or home visits with 'Paralegals' who do their best to scare victims into believing they must pay upfront fees to prevent pending enforcement action. The other tactic timeshare criminals use is leading victims to believe that any work carried out by previous timeshare exit companies isn't valid due to not having a notarised certificate.
Although it may be the case that the timeshare exit service you previously paid for wasn't carried out correctly, it doesn't necessarily mean that you need to pay out any more money. And it is more than likely that the criminals that have contacted you are part of the same criminal organisation that scammed you the first time.
Many of our enquiries are from past and present timeshare owners who have been contacted about timeshare exit companies that have recently closed down. This is very common and is a result of clients' data being sold on the black market or the company that has closed down, recontacting their clients under a different name.
If you are worried about the status of your timeshare contract or are being bullied into spending more money, let us know. We will check if your timeshare is still active and let you know if you need to take any further action.
If you have already been scammed or need to check the legitimacy of the company that has contacted you, get in touch. Our timeshare advice and guidance are free, and we can cancel your timeshare without you having to pay any upfront fees.
