Who called from 6178744351

Received unsolicited call from someone asking about my timeshare.

Received unsolicited call on 7/23/2012 wanting to purchase my Timeshare.  I gave my e-mail address so they could send me a proposal.  Received proposal from Worldwide management group.  The url in the e-mail for www.worldwidemanagementgroup.com redirected to www.firstoptionpropertymanagement.com.

I googled both these companies, not much out there on Worlwide management group.  Not a BBB member, and one several inquiries from consumers.

When Googling First Option Property Management I get quite a bit of information.

http://www.redweek.com/forums/messages?thread_id=18444    lists a lot of complaints @ the company and many references to a Greenleaf Escrow company also with many complaints.

Got a call from them yesterday with an outrageous offer for our timeshare.  The person claimed there would be no money up front and their 5% would come after we closed and received our money.  Sounds like a scam but I cannot figure how they are going to work it.  Did anyone go past the proposal stage? If so, what was their next volley?

I have recieved the exact same stuff.  It continues on with them turning it over to 1 stop title ( can't find much out on them either).  They claim that the funds are held in escrow,  and that I need to pay for the transfer fees, to the vacation property, and some other fees (recording/notary), to the sum of $2597.00.  Haven't bit that bullet yet.  Any ideas?????
