I just got a suspicious phone call...

From a guy. He said I was selected from a card I filled out at an expo (which I've never been to) and won a 3night 2 day all expense paid honeymoon to my choice of Wyndham in DR, mexico or Bahamas, all inclusive no strings attached.

HOWEVER, I have to make an appointment to have one of his representatives come into my home and give a 90 minute presentation trying to sell me their cutlery products.

Am I the only one who thinks this is fishy??

girls, just stay aware if you get a call like this. I've read articles on how people know when your gettin married and know you won't be home all day then rob your house. I wonder if its a ploy to case my home and see whats inside?

I don't know, I might be paranoid, but my mom always told me...if it's too good to be true, it probably is.

I would not participate in it. Don't do it.

No I had no plans on it...in fact I told him that I didn't think it was a good idea for his representative to come to my house cause my rottweiler doesn't really like strange people =)

I just got a call too! Some girl left me a VM from a 347 # saying my fiance and I won some amazing package. I had my sis call her back (I didn't feel like talking) - she said I filled out a card somewhere (but I don't fill those things out and I've never been to any bridal shows)... after a few minutes my sis realized it was some bogus thing, I would have to go online and fill out some survey or something...... how annoying to get calls like this at 8pm on my personal cell!!!!!!!

Yup it was weird, and annoying. O well, just wanted to put it out there for anybody that gets a call like that.

dont do it. i did it once (we went to a hotel with a group of people) it was a waste of time and its not as simple as 'sit and listen to us and you get....'

I agree it is probably a scam. I'm with your Mom, anything that seems too good to be true, usually is.

I've gotten a bunch of those since I got engaged. Beware they are scams! They always say that I filled out a cards, or perhaps someone filed one out on my behalf. Yeah right, if someone that I know did that they would have let me know.
I don't know what the plot behind it is but DON'T fall for it!
