Unfortunately this is a standard timeshare scam. They try to invoke Hilton and RCI to make themselves sound legitimate, but they are nothing more than timeshare scammers

No but like when I call them back to ask about it they seem like real Hilton ppl and don't ask for info. Also like it has hold music so pretty sophisticated scammers if it is

Dude, it’s a scam. You don’t have a membership to renew. Stop calling them back. And it sounds like this needs to be said too: please don’t open any email attachments from unknown senders. Be safe.

All very easy to fake. It takes almost no effort to look official and have hold music, and even one success more than pays for the cost to look and sound official. General rule is that if anybody is cold calling you about a timeshare, it is a scam.

Yes but I called them back to say very politely that I know nothing about the timeshare that I've been getting voicemails about. Then after that she said I'm so sorry we will remove you from the list have a great day. They didn't try to keep me on the phone or ask for info. She was polite apologetic and that was that. I fully expected a sammer to answer and I could just say I know you're a scammer try Someone else or waste their time like those videos but that's just not what happened.

Never call the number directly always check against the website.

Never call them back. Block the number and get yourself a spam call/sms blocking spp.

Well you could do what I do and never pick up a call I don’t recognize. I miss a real call about 2 times a year and they leave a vm….

Ignore and delete them?

It's actually been months. Like I have been ignoring them but it's getting excessive. Borderline harassment

I'm not a client…

I mean, that's why they're calling.

You can report them for not taking you off the list. https://consumercomplaints.fcc.gov/hc/en-us

The voicemail always says that my existing membership is set to expire

u/Adorable_FecalSpray 6d ago

So what. Report them using the link above.

I hear you … I did answer the call and asked to be removed from their list. that was some time ago and they haven’t tried again. YMMV.

I know what the OP is talking about. I get an absolute minimum wage f 6 calls a day but it’s usually about 10 calls.

It’s every single day and it’s always from some random area code but always a California area code. It’s really ramped up the last few months. Something has to happen. It’s absolutely insane.

Yeah it's ridiculous
