According to the new legal filing by Diamond Resorts, Timeshare Compliance and Resort Advisory Group lure timeshare owners into paying large upfront fees in exchange for so-called timeshare “exit” services. By advertising a “legal method” and the services of lawyers, the Defendants are able to charge huge fees—sometimes exceeding $100,000. In reality, the companies and the law firms they partner with fail to deliver any legitimate service. Instead, they only mislead timeshare owners into breaching their timeshare contracts, which results in foreclosure and a negative impact on the owners’ credit history.
Diamond’s complaint presents direct evidence of this scam, including dozens of testimonials from consumers and messages saved on Resort Advisory Group and Timeshare Compliance’s customer relationship management system.
