I was called at home and notified by apparently 2 reps from Universal studios stating I had won a 12 D and 12 N vacation pkg in Orlando Florida. I could use this pkg within 1 year. They told me their? Names and operator I.D. # and that this call was being recorded for quality purposes. They had my phone no. And address which scared me a little. They refused to give me a 1-800 # so I could call and also refused to e-mail me same info given over the phone. Once the 2nd person got on the phone (from Shipping apprently). Janet as she is called quickly went down to business requesting $249.00 for the first 2 people on my trip and the 3rd and 4th party of course went for free. I told them I would not give out my Visa no. Over the phone. She started getting a little irate and again mentionned to tehm I thought that this was obviously a scam. I had tried to keep them on the phone as much as I could so that took away their precious time in scamming someone else. Ah! Yes! Their phone no comes up as restricted on your phone. They sounded at the beginning very real and I believe they would succeed in taking money from someone. I still don't know how they got my information. They had also requested my husbands name and our phone no. At home as they had my cell phone no. I contacted Universal studios and made them aware via e-mail, but no response.
