I got the same call this morning, we talked for almost 20 minutes.
I confirmed the information they already had; like my date of birth, email and address but when it came to my credit card information, I refused to provide anything. I asked them for a confirmation email or letter but nothing was given. She said she'd send a confirmation after my payment.
She said her name was Tara and reference #5289, in the end she was getting frustrated and pushy so I told her that I wasn't interested in anything and to give this "prize" to someone else because I didn't think this was a legitimate offer. They we're really vague when I asked when I entered this contest by saying it was within the last 6 months and I entered the sweepstakes with Hotmail with their affiliated Disney website, which makes no sense because hotmail doesn't have my credit card information and they wanted to confirm it by me repeating it.
So if you get a similar call, please don't give up any credit card information.
I hope this helps someone out!

This is a fraud campaign currently active in Canada using a series of Iristel VOIP numbers. The objective is to obtain your credit card number and drain your account.
If you attempt to "opt out" your number will be confirmed as live and added to a suckers list for repeated future calls.
