I'm with hpgc. I got a call from GPX about selling weeks for $399 and eventually netting much more, deposited to my checking account, that I could do up to 6.
What is this about? They said folks do this to pay maintenance fees when they don't use their time.

Selling what weeks?

Getting cold calls from scammers pretending to be someone else offering to rent your extra weeks is an old scam. What phone number did they use?

GPX is an exchange company and they do offer additional weeks to rent with no exchange required (not for you to rent) for as low as $399 but they are affiliated with Grand Pacific Resorts, not HGVC.

As others note it is not GPX calling you. Also, why would GPX need you to rent their weeks? Why wouldn't they rent them and keep all of the profit? Why share with you, goodness of their hearts?

Thanks to both repliers. It sounded like a scam to me. I did not participate with them.
