Scam Description

Scammer called me on my personal cell phone and stated if I listened to a 45 minute presentation the next day on a zoom call, my family and I would receive a vacation package that is a 4 days and 3 night stay for free. They were very adamant that you attended the zoom call by calling and texting to make sure you were attending the day before and day of the zoom call and even before the zoom call was supposed to start. The presentation explained that they could give you a wholesale travel membership to be able to travel with extreme discounts for airfares, cruises, hotel stays, all inclusive stays, car rentals, activities, and weekly stays. After the Zoom call was over with the group of people who had an appointment the same time as my appointment, we were all redirected to a personal advisor to ask questions and have the details clarified and to see if we would buy the membership. The 10 year with unlimited access was regularly priced at $5999 was marked down today only to $1999. with a $199 per year annual fee and the legacy plan was normal priced at $7999. was offer today only for $3999. with $199 annual fee when you traveled that year. It was definitely enticing to think you could go on a Hawaiian vacation with a reasonable cost instead of the true expense it realistically costs. I told the representative named Dylan that I would have to talk it over with my husband before I would buy anything thing. I would have to talk to him first and let him know later tonight. He said he understood. They had me wondering if this is just too good to be true…..So I checked out the BBB for it being a possible scam and I found others that had problems with them not being legit. I am so glad I went with my gut feeling that it is too good to be true and it is. Right now it is a tough time for most Americans because of the economy issues and we definitely do not need for scammers taking more money from us. Buyers beware. They didn’t get money from me even though they tried. I never gave them my credit card number but they did ask how old I was. I will be contacting the credit bureaus to make sure to put an alert on my accounts. They have perfected how a travel business would act if you were dealing with them. At the end you are shocked that they had you believing what they were telling you as being the truth
