OMG they just called me TODAY 6/27/08 I also didnt answer because i didnt know the number! they left me a message saying i won 2 FREE tickets with all my expenses paid to Acapulco Puerto Vallarta, i could choose whichever i wanted!!! This is a total scam!
Same story here. Message says I signed up for a promotion and won a free trip to (XXXXX, can't remember the locations but Puerto Vallarta was one of them).
Yep, whomever this scam agency is, they called me on my cell and left a message saying that I won a Promotional package from Westar (I think), that includes 2 nights and 3 days to either Cancun, Aculpulco, or Puerto Vallarta. The thing is...I'v never signed up for a package, none the less gave my cell number to any travel agency company. The package deal that they claim to be free, is really only offered to couples (spouses whom are married)), or individuals whom are 25 and older. I'm 18, so where do I fall in place? And as far as being 25 and over to qualify, must have something to do with credible, credit information.
I'm receiving an increasing number of unsolicited, pre-recorded, commercial calls, like the one from 301-882-9944. This came to my cell in the 512 area. It said someone in my family had filled out a "request for information" slip or something like that--totally bogus--and offered an all-expense-paid three day vacation to some tropical destination.
Whether or not this is a real offer, this type of solicitation is unlawful. I'm on the National and state DNC lists. I encourage EVERYONE who receives this type of call to go to the FCC's online complaint form and fill it out and submit it. You'll find it at:
