I am so sorry to hear this - I just can't believe there are people who do this sort of thing to others. Naive, I know. I am glad to hear that you have got it sorted out and have found another wonderful DVC owner.

That's EXACTLY why I haven't rented points for a trip. We love to stay DVC but the thought of planning a trip and having the rug pulled out scares the bejesus out of me. Glad it worked out in the end!

Oh that makes me sad that someone would do that...hopefully the scammer is being rewarded with consequences for such actions.

Thanks again everyone!

I really hope this doesn't scare anyone away from renting points, but serves as a lesson to be extra careful. I followed all the suggestions for researching the owner EXCEPT the one I find key- don't rent from someone with a low post count.

My new point rental is from a much more seasoned owner.

There are some good places that rent out points, I actually rented out some of my points that were booked & we had to cancel our trip, didn't want to loose them so we rented them out. The place we used handled everything & both renters & us were pleased with the transaction..
Yow would never have a worry this way & I didn't have to do the work !

Hey you!

Awe, this is terrible; however, I'm so glad you will hopefully be able to recoup and not lose what you have spent had you sent cash. But hey, a 1-bedroom? Not too shabby! Glad your trip is still on...and not just because your (shhh) leading our group! LOL
