Beware of the Timeshare scam!
A few years ago, my boyfriend J. and I spent three nights at *The Cornercove Las Vegas Resort & Casino as part of a $99.00 package. (*Actual location name changed)
The agreement required us to take part in a sneak peek tour of said resort.
The customer support representative we spoke to over the phone insisted that we take this tour in order to qualify for the package deal.
We consented because it didn’t seem like an outrageous request.
Particularly with such a low price.
The booking representative never mentioned during the call that the tour was specifically for hotel guests to view their time share units.
Furthermore, there was no mention of it being a trip to see time share units in the reservation confirmation email.
We would soon discover that The Cornercove is notorious for deceiving people on purpose by failing to disclose what will actually be happening up front.
We received the time share presentation and tour from a person by the name of Laylani (assuming that is truly her name).
We started by going inside the area that had been used for the Star Trek conventions.
