I've heard of this many times on these boards and yes, it is definitely a scam. You do not own any getaway weeks to rent out. And regardless of who calls, never ever pay anyone a large upfront fee to sell, rent out, market, or "cancel" your timeshare.

I received the same message today offering me $2300/wk for four weeks totaling $9200, stating they were looking at my RCI account. All I had to do was give them my credit card info and they would not charge it until I received their guarantee of the rental money. It would be charged $1899 for one year or $3899 for a lifetime membership. They said the merchants would not allow them to send the email until they got this info on my card. When I refused giving this they hung the phone up.
