I would be very hesitant to move forward. Where did you hear about this company?
If you are looking for timeshare weeks without having to Purchase a timeshare try:

TUG (Timeshare User’s Group) rental listings

Usually when renting a timeshare the owner requests a deposit, usually by PayPal, but could be via cashiers check. Once the owner gets the deposit usually the owner adds your name to the reservation. Once that is confirmed the renter will transfer the remaining balance. Sometimes the RESORT will ask for a credit card upon check-in to hold a deposit in case there are any damages in the room during your stay. So I’m not sure why your owner is asking you for a credit card, if you are paying by PayPal. Have you asked him why he needs your credit card?
