I was contacted by a Chris Lomich to rent a timeshare, and sent him all the info. When I called him, he said he did not contact me, and that his ID has been stolen and the perpetrator is using it to scam people on Redweek and TUG.

The Redweek Acct. is under Chris Pieszko, but he asked for the confirmation to be issued in the name of Chris Lomich.

*He may also be using the name Chris Fallo or Leyde Lomich.

I have reported it to Redweek.

A little more research reveals that this is the same person who was contacting Tuggers with rentals using the name Christopher Fallo or Chris Fallo - this may be his real name.

I reported this incident, and all the possible names to Redweek - they contacted me back and seem genuinely concerned. Then they contacted me again, and said they were investigating all the names, and had sent out warning emails to people who have been contacted by this person, through their Redweek Acct., and will delete any Accts. that belong to the scammers.

So: If you ever get a suspicious offer through Redweek, don't hesitate to report it to Redweek - they will take action - as will TUG.

After I posted the first post, I receive an email from "Leyde Lomich" in broken English, in which they sent me a suspicious link to a "revised contract," and asked me to click on the link to review the changes. It was a tiny url link, and I certainly did not click on it, because I'm sure it was a virus, or something else that was hazardous.
