I was contacted by phone, took a brief survey and was told I had 'WON' a 2 day cruise. I was skeptical, so as the representative was telling me about my fabulous prize I looked up the company on the interenet and found many unhappy people. I asked the Caribbean Cruise Line representative if I could have some more information in the mail, as I was not ready to give my credit card number (for port taxes) to him. He said he could only email me info and that the deal would be off if I hesitated and I would have to pay full price. Any viable upstanding company would not disallow you to look over information before purchasing, so I asked to speak with a supervisor.
The supervisor said he too would email me their info (which I accepted, it was another pitch, not company info) and he said I had to make my decision then while reading the email. I said I am not sure I may pass, he promptly hung up the phone! Any company that will not give you info through the mail does this because they know they can be prosecuted for many mail fraud acts, that is why they only email since their is so such regulation through the internet. If you get solicited by this company, just say NO and hang up.
