I had put my children to bed and was messing about on my laptop when i got a pop-up saying I was the millionth visitor. I ignored it but was plugging in the charger and must have clicked on the pop-up accidently and there was a message telling me i had won a trip to florida with $3000 dollars off the price.
There was a phone number and it was local so I thought, why not, I got three children who have never been out of scotland who dream of going to disneyland. When they answered I spoke to Kathryn Bloom who was very pleasant and proceeded to tell me the holiday I won was for miami, daytona and the bahamas.
She also told me I would have seven days car rental, breakfast included and gift certificates for the parks. I was amazed and stunned, I never win anything. All I coukd think about was how my thrilled my children will be when I tell them.
I was then passed to Stephanie Shelly who was polite but very rushed, she spoke so quickly about how lucky I was and for that she will reduce the price from $868 to $700, in british money it roughly 560 to 400.
For me, this was fantastic, my family were going on a trip of a lifetime for 400 quid. Staphanie then becsme very ruched again and required my Visa detail, I gave them to her, trusting her as she told me she needed them in order to register me for the online account so I couls show my children all the places we would be going to.
I wss then transferred to a nice man called Tony or Eric, I cant remember. He again took me through all I had won. He then told me he was going to record our conversation and I only hasd to say "agree" or "disagree".
He told me I could ask questions after he had finished this recording. I did as he asked and I had know idea that he was finished, he thanked me, congratulated me, then went on give numbers to call to make the reservations, he confirmed my e-mail amd phone number and said goodbye.
After he hung up, I became suspicious so I thought I would do a little research before I told the kids in the morning. I am so thankful that I did and found out about these guys here.
My first job tomorrow is to go to my bank and cancel my card and the transaction, Im really hoping it wont have gone through already. If not, Im screwed. My advice to anyone who finds themselves in a similar position with these guys or others like them, IGNORE ANY AND ALL POP-UPS, ALL THEY WANT IS YOUR MONEY!!!
