Free Airline Tickets - Cost Money to redeem

We received a mailing for "two round trip airline tickets to any major international airport anywhere in the continental USA". We just had to listen to a 90 minute presentation about a brand new travel agency opening up in Northbrook. We specifically asked if this was a time share or a solicitation for us to buy into something. We were told by Tony that this was a no obligation presentation to tell us about this travel agency and that at the end of the presentation we would receive FREE two round trip airline tickets to anywhere in the USA, good for one year with no blackout dates just for our time. The goal being we would be so impressed with the travel agency that we would refer them to our friends. The presentation was indeed a medium sell of a membership travel program for the low-low membership price of $14,900 but if you joined tonight it would be $11,900 and then it miraculously dropped down to $6,900 for lifetime travel at discounted rates through Global Services and the spin continued. When they let us out of the presentation room we were escorted to the "hard sell" area. Each couple was introduced to their very own travel consultant, seated at a very small table, in a room of 30 tables. It was loud and chaotic and a "No we aren't interested" was not accepted without first bringing over a manager to try and arm twist some more.in the meantime announcements and applauses were made after a couple signed on and their names and trips were posted on a big board at the front of the room. We declined the membership and asked for our free gift for attending, the airline tickets. We were given a form to redeem our tickets that had to be completed in 30 days. The catch the form asks for your credit card information because there is a redemption fee of $55 plus a $4.95 activation fee plus a tax deposit of $50 per person. After paying $159.95 for your FREE tickets they are only valid at selected Major International Airports within the Continental United States. And the scam continues... If it sounds too good to be true ~ it is!!!
