Hi,

SEE COMMENTS UNDER (905) 366-7259; SAME COMPANY, SAME SCAM

Similar to everyone here, I received a call from "Ontario Grant Centre" at 9:11 AM.  The first person on the phone had a very thick east asian accent.  He said I had won a prize based upon a coupon I had completed in December.  He said that I could win one of the following:

1- Arabian Cruise (might have been Caribbean but with his accent sounded like arabian)
2- Giant Screen TV
3- Hilton Head Vacation
4- $1000
5- 1 week in Cancun

Their address is:
216 Chrislea Rd, 2nd flr
Woodbridge (near hghwy 7 & weston)

He transferred me to his senior supervisor "Shane Smith" who confirmed my info:
1- age 30 - 79 (maybe it was 39 but he had a heavy accent as well)
2- income >50k

He said there company was Canadian Grant Centre and that there was no obligation they were promoting thier company in Canada.  He said they were US based and operate in the US under the name "Premium Buyers Club".


I found the following link describing "Premium Buyers Club":

He provided me with a "password" that we needed to present.  As well, we could not bring our children with us (unless over 14).  This all sounded very strange.  I told him that the "password" was a strange step as: a- you contacted me and have my contact info; b- if I bring two pieces of ID it corroborates my ID.  He became a little agitated and said that this was their procedure and part of their gifting ceremony.  

He provided me a contact number of (416) 548-5981 and called from ID (905) 258-9201.

I called back with feedback from this site and spoke with "Shane" again.  I said that they had mislead and that we were not interested in listening to a program where we had to purchase points and that we would not be coming in.  He was defensive and tried to push me to come in.  I declined and he said "no problem" and let go of the call.

Telemarketer from "Premium Club" called even though I am on the national DO NOT CALL list.  Lied to me and told me I entered a ballot around Christmas time in a store (which I never did).  Any company that flat-out lies to people should be charged with fraud.  This company is a scam.
