This guy "Oscar" calls my mom and tells her that she has filled out some coupon and has won one of 5 prizes - $1,000 being the first prize. My mom doesn't understand English very well and "Oscar's" thick accent did not make things easier for her. She asked "Oscar" to call me at work so that he could explain to me what it was he was saying. Now, all of a sudden he tells me I filled out some coupon and that I've won a big prize. When I tell him I'm not interested and don't want to discuss it at work, he gets pushy and rude and wants to know why I wouldn't want to win $1,000. Then he tells me in his country it is hard to find work so he came to Canada and has a family to feed and is a very poor man. This is when I hung up. Don't mean to be cold hearted but this is not how he began the call and I had no idea where he was going with it. I saw the number appear on my display a couple more times and never picked up again!

The guy or guys calling from this number is really persistent. Avoid him at any cost. He'll keep calling and calling until you both get fed up. If i were you or anyone receiving a call from him, just notify the police.

Just received a call from this guy, said he was from the gifting centre and that I had won something because I had filled out a form in December 2007. SCAM!!! If I catch this F#$%Ker I'll hang him by his B@#LS.

Similar to the call I got. I asked the caller if he had a Do Not Call list as I was already on it. He then ignored my question and said something like Ï'll call you later then". I insisted on speaking to his manager immediately. He said the manager was busy with another call. I said "get another manager" (I've worked in telemarketing and even the smallest ones will typically have at least 2 managers). He hung up on me.For some reason, call display showed "yali16".

I've been getting missed calls from this number and they finally got me at home today.The guy had a thick accent and I could barely hear him. He called to say that I filled out a coupon and I have won a guaranteed prize. I had to come pick it up at the Vacation Store 216 Chrislea Road Woodbridge. Office on second flr #202. Nearest intersection is Hwy 7 and Weston Rd.The guy assured me there is no catch. And that I am not obligated to buy anything. Then he passed me onto his manager. The name of the Senior Manager was Johnson. He also said that there is guaranteed to be no sales pitch.He explained that there will be a max 90 mins gifting ceremony. It will take place in 3 sessions but will not take longer than 90 mins. The ceremony includes a buffet dinner.The 5 potential prizes of which I will receive only 1 are:$1000 cash prize52? Toshiba HDTV1 Caribbean /Alaskan cruise includes airfare1 week for a couple to Cancun Mexico/Florida1 week for a couple to Hilton Head South Carolina includes $500 green fees He wants to confirm an appointment with me either Today/Thursday for 7pm. I told him that I'm not sure and want to check with my husband. So he asked me to call him back at (416) 628-9766 ext 2424.Then at that time he will give me a claim Package # to get my prize. Thank goodness for all your posts warning me about this. I will not be calling him back. I had a suspicion that it would be a timeshare scheme but you guys just confirmed this. Thank you all for sharing your experience.
