FTC is cracking down on timeshare scams

I just received this information from my timeshare resort, the Sheraton Buganvilias in PV. I think that is great and I wish all resorts would let their clients know about these scams. http://www.ftc.gov/opa/2013/06/timesharerelease.shtm

This is only a joke. Who is crackling down on developer selling time share property & points at such high prices?.

I don't need to open it to guess that it is talking about scammy "resale" companies, not the "legitimate" industry scam.

One other good thing about the Buganvilias Club is that they make transfer of ownership between to private parties very easy to do and hardly costs anything. It was the same for another timeshare we owned at the Grand Velas. Both resorts are very helpful with the transaction. Not all of them are crooks!
