Got a call from Canadian Value Solutions offering free trips as well....And as well nice WASP name George Morrison....with Indian accent...hidden but recognized.....They're asking as "just" to come and to attend presentation....Scam? Probably..... I won't go I guess.......They said I visited one of GTA malls recently(July - Sept) - however last time I've been to that mall was 9-10 month ago... My rough guess they're picking some names from Yellow Pages or other Lists and randomly calling those "victims".....

Got a call from Canadian Value Solutions offering free trips, 3 days, 2 nights, airfare, hotel etc to Las Vegas or LA or Orlando , Cancun or New Orleans.  Caller insisted I didn;t have to do anything but come and collect the prize.  When I said I had kids nad would have to bring them along, they suggested I get a baby sitter since there was a prizing ceremony.   When I suggested I wouldn't stay for it, just collect my prize, they said there was a dinner and a short presentation.  In the end I insisted that I couldn't come unless I brought my kids and they told me they would hold onto the prize until I let them know.  Contacts were Gabriella Adams and Sean McKenzei (who with such a wonderfully Anglo name had a very heavy Indian accent).  I looked it up - they actually have a website - and alos googled other peoples comments and it appears its a scam.  Don't fall for it.

Tons of calls from Absolute Home for Air Duct Cleaning.  I received 10 on Sunday evening right after another and calls became obscene.  I have Call Trace and have reported the information to Police and CRTC

These scammers have been calling me for 3 years.  They change the company name and location of the prize pick up.  They are looking for married couples between 25-65...this time I told them I got divorced and never want to be called by "his" name again.  He hung up on me!

Got a similar call today, with the story that I had filled in a form last January and didn't I remember doing that? I was told I won a prize to one of the four locations mentioned above..I only remember Los Vegas.  I could barely understand the lady who called me, very thick accent. She tried to make me feel like this was legitimate by given me her name: Vanity Wilson, employee id (105) and the customer service number of (416) 800-1280. And gave me an address where I had to go to pick up my prize  - 216 Chrislea Rd, Suite 202, Vaughan, Ontario L4L-8S5 . Would that be a 905 number? I couldn't find the zip coe or the the street name in Canada411.

I asked if there was a presentation I had to go to but was told no.

They wanted me to verify if I was between 29 and 74, was working and had a family income of over $50,000. I smelled time sharing or some kind of scam, so I told them I wasn't working and my family did not earn over $50,000. That should have disqualified me but, no, they completely ignored that and continued on, saying a higher level manager would call me soon with details of how to get my prize.

A second caller  (Rubin)..called back and asked me if I had any questions. I tried to hurry him up but he was keeping to his script. I never got the description of the dinner and presentation..I got fed up and just told him to take my slip with my name and tear it up and hung up.

Don't waste your time with these people.

Thanks to all of you who shared your experiences. Glad to find out I was not alone in my perception that this was a SCAM.

Got a call from Rueben Francis tonight asking me to confirm coming to a 90 minute presentation tomorrow.  He didn't like me telling him tomorrow is my only day off so I'd rather come another day.  He said they were calling all the people who didn't respond to a letter in the mail. He insisted I come tomorrow as they are running out of vacations. Another woman who I couldn't understand called two days ago with the initial info, Ruben's rep.  They want people who make $50,000 and above. He said they give away free vacations so people can try them out since they don't advertise.  After the people try out the vacation they will consider them for holidays. Same address and phone number in Vaughn. They told me originally they were from International Awards Inc. representing Airmiles and Shoppers' Drug Optimum Points and I had racked up 200 pts in a short timeframe. This sounded unbelieveable as I don't shop at Shopper's and only get one Airmile slowly.
