Jalisco New Generation Cartel targeting seniors and their timeshares
The Jalisco New Generation cartel in Mexico is targeting seniors and their timeshares through a scam that has netted them hundreds of millions of dollars. Victims are convinced to wire large sums of money to Mexico with promises of selling their timeshares, only to be defrauded. The cartel has expanded into legal sectors and uses call centers to target American and Canadian timeshare owners. The scam has resulted in significant financial losses for victims, some losing their entire life savings.
