Scammers Will Be Caught

Thomas Wesley, a 23 year old man, was caught and scheduled for lying to a timeshare owner that he sold his timeshare for him. Though he didn't basically sell the timeshare he accepted $30,000 from the vendor. Wesley is now prepared at the Palm Beach Local lock up and is being held with a $3,000 bail. 

After receiving several complaints from Gary Zoromski of Michigan, investigators commenced looking into the situation and discovered that Wesley along with two others have been tricking timeshare owners into believing that they'd help them sell their timeshare at a cost. Zoromski stated that he was approached by a man named Jim Reynolds who informed him that his timeshare had been sold and he wanted to pay the closing costs before the deal would close. After wiring the money, Zoromski discovered that his timeshare had not been sold and he had been conned by these three men. 

One important thing to remember is to never pay an advance charge. Many corporations have started scamming timeshare owners by convincing them they're a reputable business. Everytime a company or business asks for an upfront charge be sure to do the research and always be sure to check with the Better Business Bureau.
