Of course I won; I called a reputable radio station in New York! This must be legitimate, right? NO!
Read on

After calling the telephone number given on the station (800) 410-5544 on LA MEGA in New York,
woman answered the telephone asked me the contest question, and then stated
that I responded correctly. She said that I won, confirmed my telephone number, and I would be called again in 7 minutes. Carlos customer service called me from (407) 956-8528 to explain the
prize. He then transferred my call to Nelson, a supervisor, who confirmed my personal information for billing (taxes only).
Statements:
You have won a trip for four! You are responsible for the taxes $299.00 for 3 destinations or $199.00 for two destinations. I was told that a car would pick me up from my home drive me to the airport and that once I reached my destination a car would pick me up from the airport and drive me to my hotel. I would receive breakfast and discounts for lunch. A car would also pick me up at the hotel and drive me back to the airport. This trip also included 3 other persons.

Nelson and Carlos both stated that the air fair would be discounted by 50 to 60 percent of American Airlines or Jet Blues standard prices for the season. I would receive all of the information in the mail and via email.
Questions they asked:
1. Does your husband live with you?
2. What is your home address and telephone number?
3. What is your email address because we are going to email you a confirmation and information
about the trip you won

I agreed to the terms for two destinations and paid the $199.00. I never received the email
confirmation and I am still waiting for the mail to arrive.

Reservation telephone number is (800) 587-7016 Customer service is always busy

Taxes billed $199 for two destinations
1. Orlando4 days and three nights
2. Las Vegas 3 days and 2 nights at the Luxor

My credit card was billed instantly. I cannot get anyone on the telephone. How can a reputable radio station permit the fleecing of their loyal listeners? How can this company get away with billing for service never rendered and claiming this is a tax payment? Sounds like a
Federal crime to me.
