What is Scambusters?

Scambusters is here to provide the most up-to-date information on the latest scams targeting timeshare owners. Your Scambusters team protects you from unscrupulous resale, rental, cancellation, transfer, and relief companies. Since launching these fraud alert efforts years ago, Wyndham Destinations is more devoted than ever to keeping you informed, empowered, and on guard against companies that aim to profit by misleading you.

Some of these companies claim to be able to help you sell or exit your timeshare, even using misleading tactics such as claiming to represent Wyndham Destinations or the American Resort Development Association (ARDA). Unfortunately, many owners have trusted these companies, even signing over their power of attorney and paying up-front fees for services that are never completed ‐ leading to anguish, financial hardship, and negative impacts to their credit report.

Beware of COVID-19 timeshare scams.

On occasion, you may see a social media ad, receive a pamphlet or letter in the mail, or even get a phone call from an unknown organization claiming:

  • "We're a consumer protection group."
  • "We partner with Wyndham Destinations and other timeshare companies to negotiate an exit for you."
  • "We can sell your timeshare over market value and give you a big return on your investment."
  • "We can get you out of your timeshare for a fee."

Here are useful guidelines to help you avoid being taken advantage of:

  • Always confirm that you're speaking with a WorldMark by Wyndham representative before engaging in any conversations about your ownership.
  • Beware of companies or individuals that offer to eliminate your maintenance dues.
  • Watch out for any resale company asking for payment or fees before selling, exiting, or canceling your timeshare.
  • Be skeptical of exit companies that claim that you have to "act now" because their offer is limited.
