🚨 Deceptive Sales Practices: Virginia Owners\’ Story
A group of timeshare owners in Virginia were promised a water park and other amenities that were never built. The sales presentation made these promises central to the purchase decision. When these amenities were not delivered, the owners filed a class-action lawsuit and eventually had their contracts voided. Frankly, deceptive practices like this are not uncommon. Many owners find themselves misled by exaggerated promises made during the sales pitch.
