Just received this call saying I entered the draw at the Calgary Women's Show. I was there so listened. He asked if I was standing up or sitting down. I said "sitting down." He then said I won a trip and that I was being tape recorded. Immediatly after he asked if I used Visa, MC or AMEX. I asked him why he needed that info. He said in case I have phone calls, etc at the resort. I hung up after that.
They just called me from some travel agency saying you won a trip that costs 249 per person. I am guessing you have to go listen to time share speeches.... so well if you can suffer through those terrible pitches it might be worth it.
Called stating that I had won a free vacation by signing up at a local fair. Said that it was free and worth over $4000. But at the end said that I had to pay the processing fees of $249/per person (trip was for 2 people). Caller (Barry) stated that I had to give my credit card information right then, that I couldn't call back or be called back. Their website didn't really have any information on it about the company.
Got the same call from "Amazon Travel Club". I went to the Las Vegas Renaissance Festival and entered my name in a drawing. Their representatives are very pushy in offering you something that you "won" in a drawing.
