My timeshare sent me a 1099 MISC STATING I RECIEVED INCOME FROM THEM. i did not pay nor ever recieve $ from them in last 2 yrs. what do i do?

I have been trying to sell my timeshare property, so I signed up and paid Newton Fin.Grp almost 2 years ago.  I am not allowed to contact my resort and they are not to contact me.  All of the sudden as I am ready to efile, I get the 1099 MISC in the mail.  Again, I have never received money from them. Do I ignore it, or is it illegal for them to pull a stunt like this as well.

I really appreciate your answer and the law statute cited. Now, I have to find a lawyer who can assist me. I really felt it was illegal to do that. 

Thanks again
