I got a call from this number today. They knew my name, and said i had a vacation package that has expired but that i had some credits left over and if i was interested in transferring them and using it on another trip. I said no.-
I got a call a couple years ago after a bridal expo. and i was told i "won" a cruise from a draw that i had entered( i entered my name into a whole bunch of free things that day). but i needed to pay for the insurance for the cruise. so stupid younger me decides ok sure and gave them my credit card number. Well turns out it was a scam and they tried a whole bunch of various amounts of money to charge on my card. They only got around 80 dollars because that was all that was left on the limit. and so now i still get calls from time to time about this stupid cruise scam and that i still have a "vacation credit"
Guy calls at 10:30 in the morning on a Friday. Answer the phone and all I hear is background noise and distant chatting. Guy comes on with "...uhhh hi is xxxxx home?" I replied with "sorry, no one by that name is avalible to take your call. May I take a message?" Hung up immediately. Rude scumbags in my opinion.
Eileen, supposedly from Island Cruise and Vacations, called and told me that my vacation package that I had purchased 18 months ago had expired but I could renew it today. I assured her I had not purchased any package. She then said that they may have got my name from a time share, resort or some other promotional package? At this point she offered me a wonderful vacation package in Florida with car rental and Disney tickets included for $498usd plus a 2nd week free stay at my choice of 1 of 20 destinations. When I didn't bite at that her manager came on and said he would make the deal even better. All of the above plus an additional week for only $118cdn. How could I refuse?
Easy, I hung up.
