called my cell 2x's today. Looks like the typical, "You've won a trip for 2" scam. "It's all free except for the taxes, duties, airfare, fuel tax, etc, etc, etc..." Thing is, if it's a real contest, and a real prize, then where on the contest forms did it say I agree to paying all these extras if I win??
Last time I recieved one of these calls, they actually said, "I see you are a member in good standing with Visa,.." I started laughing and asked if their info was 20 yrs old, as I haven't been in good standing with Visa in at least 20 yrs. She was quick though, and said, "Oh, did I say Visa, sorry I was looking at the wrong client, I meant Master Card." I went through my laugh and scoff again, and she tries again. "Sorry, I meant Amex." I told her when she actually finds my file, and reviews my credit history she can call me back. Then advised her that any credit history she does find on me would be illegally obtained as I have not given them any of my personal info.
