SCAM!
Complaint
am
Country: United States
I dialed this number by accident trying to reach another company. The gentleman who answered the phone immediately told me I was selected to receive a $500 grocery gift card. He convinced me that it was free of charge with no obligation. I gave him my work address and then he asked for a credit card to pay the $6.95 shipping and handling fee. I told him I did not have one because I sure as hell wasn't going to give him my credit card! He argued with me and was very rude and that was the end of the conversation. THIS IS SCAM...DON'T FALL FOR IT!

@$$hole, what they say is:
"Sir, the lines have been busy and you were transferred to the rewards hotline AFTER WE ARE DONE, you can simply hang up and re-dial the number to be connected..."
if you question them at this point they will answer with:
"Sir, the lines have been busy and you were transferred to the rewards hotline AFTER WE ARE DONE, you can simply hang up and re-dial the number to be connected..."
You are a liar and a thief just as is everyone involved in this scam. I didn't fall for it but my 85 year old mother, living on a fixed income, did and it wasn't discovered until 3 months after it started. There are several numbers you can call that give you the same response as when you call the one in our post Jack. They say something about a 9 digit number that can be found in the confirmation email you received. That is pretty much impossible since my 85 year old mother not only doesn't have an email address but doesn't even know what email is.
Had to. I miss dialed the very last number on my card. DONT DO IT.
also call this number after 12:00am and u will get same people
during other times, you will get medical alert scammers
I asked a few questions and he answered them. Then he said he would need my credit/debit card number for $5.95 shipping. I them asked why it was so much to mail a gift card and told him to take the shipping charge out of the gift card. He then got very rude and demanded my card number. I hung up.
