I can't believe I was dumb enough to fall for this OkeyDoke. Received the same call telling me I won a $100 WalMart Gift card. They needed my card number to charge a $1 service fee. A couple of weeks later, NO Walmart card ever received but my card was charged for $59.90 from a CORE VISION GROUP, PINELLAS PARK FLORIDA. I Googled the company and
found all this information. When I called the company, they already had my name and info without me giving them my information. A man with a heavy Indian accent assured me that the money would be charged back to my card within 5 -7 business days. I am currently waiting to see if I actually get my refund but I hope that this doesn't happen to anyone
else. I called the FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION (FTC) at 1-877-FTC-HELP (1-877-382-4357) and filed a complaint on the company. I was very angry that I fell for this scam, but at the time I really needed that WalMart card and figured that a scam couldn't happen to me. DON'T FALL FOR IT!!! It's never a good idea to give your private information out over the telephone for any kind of "winning" offer.
