There is more to it than just the $118 fees although if that is all they get they take it and run. The next part of this scam is to get you to a high pressure sales presentation for, most likely, a "discount" travel club of some sort with high annual fees and a multi-year contract. That is where they make their real money and all it takes is a few success per month to make money.
Won a cruise for two. They want $118 for "port taxes" to secure. I told em to send it in writing first and they refused. The kid said it was his first day working in the call center, complained because I wouldn't let him get through his script and whined, "but I'm not a scam-artist."
Guess what that means lol
Sorry, nothing in writing= no money.
