05 Feb 2012 03:15:Right so they have just cold called you and asked for money have they given this to you in writing or email?
If not I would not touch it as when you get there they will probably try and sell you timeshare and it will all be a waste of time.
We have some timeshare in the Gran Canaries Puerto Anfi and have to say very happy with that as we have had it eleven years now. But we did go to Tenerife for a weeks holiday in a timeshare complex Beverly Hills Los Christianos Not sure if that is how you spell it and it was a nightmare they were trying to sell us more timeshare which we did not want, then we got stopped about a holiday club for nearly a day. So it was not one of my favourite places to go.
There is a timeshare website that helps people caught up in timeshare scams, they might be able to help you.
But personally I would not pay any money out after being cold called, call their bluff and tell them that and see what they say. The trouble is there are some very clever people out there that know how to do these scams, so it is up to us not to fall for them. Good luck with it anyway.
