<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">In my experience it is typical for timeshare “maintenance” fees to be extraordinary. I see little possibility of recovering the $4,000 if the sum is now in Mexico. A review of the client’s timeshare contract
may reveal her rights and whether the fees are provided in the contract. Subsequent correspondence may reveal a U.S. party allied with the timeshare provider over whom leverage might be possible. Depending on the sums at stake, it may be worthwhile to retain
Mexico counsel in the area where the timeshare is located. I may have some suggestions on that depending on the location.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">An elderly PC just called and said she was trying to sell her timeshare in Mexico and the buyer told her there were past due facility fees owed. So she wired the $4000+ to an “escrow account” in Mexico. Then
asked her to wire money to pay past due taxes, but when her bank wisely stopped her and suggested it was a scam she reached out. Has anyone had success in recovering funds from a scam like this? Or have a minute to speak to her about what she can do?</span><o:p></o:p></p>
