This fraud is mostly executed in Cabo San Lucas, a world popular beach destination located in Mexico. The salesperson invites the potential victims to a timeshare presentation in Cabo Viejo. The salespeople claim to the owners that they can sell their timeshare for impressively large amounts of money. Part of the deal is that you need to buy a “membership” which you can use to stay at several luxury resorts for very reasonable rates.
