Scammers Allegedly Using Retired Attorneys’ Identities in Timeshare Fraud

A lawsuit seeking to shut down a website using an attorney’s identity to perpetrate a timeshare scheme is the latest example of how lawyers are targeted in fraud scams.

A group of unidentified scammers are allegedly using the personal information of retired Maryland attorney George E. Johnson to defraud property owners looking to sell their timeshare in Cancún, Mexico, according to a lawsuit filed Sunday in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California.
