Re: Donating my timeshare to a charity (by Don P.):

NEVER pay anyone an upfront fee. It sounds like a scam. As for deducting the fee.. that's a big lie. You can only deduct the actual value of the item donated. Since most timeshares have little or no value the deduction is nothing. They will tell you all the lies you want to hear to get your money. As soon as you send them payment your money and the scammers disappear. They will then put you on the " sucker list ". Somewhere down the road someone will contact you claiming they can recover the original money you lost. It's another scammer working off the sucker list.
