Just got a voicemail from "Kim" at bridal registry that I won a bridal package. I only registered at David's Bridal too during the initial intake when I was dress shopping. I called my local David's Bridal location and they said it sounded like a scam- the girl said if it had been them they would've said David's Bridal/Men's Warehouse.
Just got a call from them a few minutes ago from a BLOCKED (not unknown) number stating This is "Nicole" from Bridal Registry calling in regards to my attendance to the Great Bridal Expo and that I had won a prize. She gave me an extension to call her back. It was very weird because I could BARELY hear her. I had to listen to the message several times to figure out what she was even saying. Plus, there was a phone ringing in the background. Very sketchy..I googled the number and came across this site. I'm definitely not calling them back.
Pretty much the same as everyone else...call today from UNKNOWN. Voicemail was from Rosanna at x6115 stating she was from the Awards Center at Bridal Registry and I had won 3 prizes. She referenced a Great Bridal Expo event, which I did attend.
A co-worker wants to call her back and mess with her...ha!
Hi everyone, got a call today from this new number (615) 577-0931
TN, USA stating the exact same thing as above, her name is Candice. She texted me the number and that she has been trying to get in touch with me about my registered gifts. I called back thinking it was a scam, there was a lady who answered that Candice was busy at the moment but would call me back ASAP. She sounded very professional. Candice called me back within 5 minutes and explained that I had won either champagne flutes, or a gift card for $600 to some jewlelry store I haven't ever heard of, or even a honeymoon package. She said the groom would have to come, but that she felt bad that my fiancé is currently stationed in FL and I'm in SC, and that if I could bring a friend to pose as my fiancé that they would still accept that, but that I shouldn't tell anyone that, bc it could get her fired if her "superiors" knew she had said that. After talking with my mom, a few friends, and my fiancé I decided to research. Since ie only registered at David's Bridal to win my bridesmaids dresses, I didn't understand how I could have won something this great! Be forewarned. She is trying to get me to meet here at 7:30 at night at the Hilton Garden hotel on International Blvd this weekend. After hearing all of this, its most likely the same people, so I'm staying clear!
STAY HOME!
My fiancée and I went after "winning" an all-inclusive honeymoon package. I double checked the inclusive part before agreeing to go.
We get there - some basement teeny conference room of a Best Western and the rep was selling cookware. After sitting thru this forever presentation (complete with cooking!) we said no thanks and received our prize: a 3 day trip, NOT all- inclusive, no airfare, etc etc etc . Oh, and some random coupons.
The "trip voucher" is in my drawer. I have not called the hotels listed or whatever because since so far this has been double-talk, falsehoods and a waste of time, why bother....
I got a call too. We were all set up to go to the meeting. I figured, the worst out would be is a waste of time, but this seems to confirm that. We won't be going tonight. Thanks for the heads-up!
