They called me and I can never get a hold of them is this a scam????

I just took a call from this number.. the lady was VERY pleasant.. identified herself as "Susan Scott" from "Business Development BC" (calling from a Quebec number??? weird...) "a division of Can-West"... She explained that they are a printing company. She knew our business name and offered us the opportunity to purchase marketing materials (our choice of either pens, swiss army knife key-chains, or leather pocket notebooks) with our company info printed on them. We'd pay just under $300 and for taking part in their "market research" we'd be rewarded with one of several fine "Bonus gifts" which would either be a; $500 gas card, an HP laptop or desktop computer, a $500 gift card for Walmart, a $500 gift card for Canadian Tire, a $1000 gift card for Home Hardware, OR a 51" LG TV with surround sound and blue-ray player. Hmmm.... Spend less than $300, get marketing materials, AND a bonus valued minimally at $500. ??? Seems fishy to me. She says the offer is only available for this week and offered to call me back tomorrow. I suggested she give me a couple days and she said she'll call me Wednesday. I asked her if there was a website I could go to and she said "No.. we don't sell to the general public"  Hmm.. I asked if she could mail me something and she said, "Given the current postal situation that wouldn't work very well at this time."  True.. but too bad she had that as an excuse. I wonder if they ever mail anything to anyone!!
I'm not giving out my credit card info that easily!
Anyone else have any similar experience???

I got the same [***] as Kari, except it was Business Development Alberta.

I asked her for costs and if she could mail me out a catalogue or something so I could see what I was buying.. she said 'oh sure we'll mail you out a catalogue right away' before putting the phone down.. she must not have hung it up correctly because I could hear her say 'f**k off' before the call actually ended.

thanks for your follow up call and i got some local support to fix my delema thanks andre

Oh they mail out stuff when you order, that's for sure... it's just GARBAGE.  I received a call from 'Sarah Parker', and thought I would give it a shot, as they had called me once before and had not been rude when I had declined at that time. I got the same spiel: special offer with a bonus, so I ordered 100 pens and 50 notebooks, and what I got was a box crammed full of crappy spiral bound notebooks with junk 8 cent pens strapped to the front. Definitely NOT worth $300: I could buy this crap at Staples for $200.  I'd be embarrassed to hand these out. Not only that, I had to pay a $20 COD charge on the package!  What a joke.  This company needs to be held accountable for their actions. I called them back, and just got lucky and got a hold of Sarah. She was surprised to hear I received this package of garbage and said she would look into it, to which I have yet to receive a reply.  Now when it just rings until it goes to voicemail.

BEWARE.  THIS IS A SCAM AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED. STAY FAR AWAY FROM THESE PEOPLE.
