DVC. I think her aunt owns the DVC points and allows her to use them.
I don't think many of us even believe there is a DVC property. Seems like she's had a few dead grandmas (read the other thread), so how long before her 'aunt' dies too and she can't transfer points?
I know the DIS boards provide this service as a convenience and have no legal obligation to help and have done so out of the goodness of their hearts, so hopefully this PP has met her match, but I fear in the future this will happen again as transferring any type of money (I still don't get the whole EBAY thing) sight unseen may result in problems. I am a very positive person, but I am also a realist, and this tells me that perhaps people's expectations of each other are a little too high in certain situations - good and honest people will have no problems in rental or transfer transactions, but dishonest people and those with personality issues will.
Good lesson learned here for everyone (red flag: when the dead relatives die the day of money transfer, unfortunately, the money is probably never going to be seen again. I'm not sure what the answer is as we would have to presuppose that everyone is dishonest and selfish, and I myself don't think that way, but it's kind of hard not to when people like this continue to do their 'business' (and that is exactly what she has going here) on innocent people without any consequences. This is basic psychology of parenting - when there are no direct consequences, children will test the limits and may misbehave, as this PP seems to be doing.
We can all only hope that the innocent people get their money back, and the PP perhaps one day if we are all lucky, can comtemplate how she will use 'her' DVC points while sitting in jail!
