This crowd are at it again.  I've had at least 12 phone calls from them today alone. They are trading as Global Group Travel and BoomerangTravelClub.com. I tried keeping them on line for as long as I could to find out something about them. In most cases when I sounded sceptical, or they suspected that I knew it was a scam, they just hang up on me. I run a business and I have 100 phone numbers as part of a PABX. They just seem to be ringing everyone of my numbers in turn - very frustrating and a waste of my time.   It would be nice if the Police did something about these con-men.

I just received a call from Global Group Travel..  same type of message as above comments with the recording etc...  This time it said I was selected to win $999 towards a trip based on a recent trip I took with Air Canada.  After answering a qualifying question they passed to me to a third person that asked for my name.  I told her I would like to learn more before disclosing my name and she hung up.  This is an obvious scam so posting to just keep consumers aware and alert.  The number was (416) 917-8100.  

So I got the same call again as before: number calls, I answer, it says that I've won AirMiles and to press 1 to claim it, I press 1 to get an agent to put me on their DNC List, always transfers to no agent/agent disconnects/busy signal. However this time I heard them say VBN before they disconnected. VBN is also mentioned here. The number that called this time is (807) 977-8989 (but same as when I had this (403) 912-8989 number calls).Went to http://vacationsbynewport.com/Their incoming number is 1-+1 888-791-5890 and they are definitely a telemarketing company since I heard the din of call centre in the background. I asked to be put on their DNC list. He asked for my name and I said Seth and then he asks for my LAST NAME!!?? I said, 'No, the law is that I give you my number and you don't call me for 5 years' The operator seemed exasperated the whole time "I'm just a worker here" he said. So I said 'fine I'll talk to your supervisor', he wasn't willing to do that so I gave a fake last name... They don't need that, sheesh.BETTER NOT CALL ME FOR A WHILE NOW...I'm not even sure if this it's a CRTC issue since the calls are coming from 'merica.

I didn't pick up and they didn't leave a message. Like the others on this post, I assume it's a scam.

Showed up on my call display. No message.

no its not actually.  It is faked, and you would have to do an actual call trace to find out where it is coming from.  This same scam has been quasi-legally operating for a number of years, and the number constantly changes, but the "you've won xxx air-miles" message is always the same
