I got a call from 613-689-9843. He told me because I was a gold card member I would receive a 100.00 gift card for any store I wish.
I only had to pay the activation fee of 1.95. I asked how he wanted me to pay for this he said by credit card. This is a SCAM. They want your credit card number so they can use it.
The caller said that since I was a "good customer of VISA or Mastercard" I was going to receive a gift of $100.00 free gas. I believe she said she was calling from the "Guest Department" or some such. I said "no thanks, I don't believe you" and hung up. It's probably a scam to get your C/C number. Seriously, C/C companies don't join together and give away free gas.
They called me 3 times in an hour. i called back thinking it was an emergency. They knew my name and said they were from the gift department for Visa and MasterCard. Said they would send free gas coupons along with other coupons, $1.95 shipper per coupon. I said I don't give my credit card number out over the phone and they hung up. Scam!!!
