While innocently looking up a recipe a notice popped up saying call within two minutes you,ve won $2'500. So regretfully I called talked to the nicest person, wouldn't you know about how this was a promotion for a trip, a lavish trip. I could take it whenever within 18 months I just had to pay for some meals and the plane trip to get there. Thinking it would have been a nice anniversary I even asked my wife about it and the guy talked to her. I paid $598 thats a chunk of change to lose due to my stupidity.

They gave me a web address a password a user ID guess what they didn't work. So I called them they said it would take 24 hrs before I was in the system so I waited. Days later still nothing except for the deduction on my bank account slip $598!

So I finnaly called them back and they said they had no record of me paying and thats why the hadn't contacted me. I even asked the guy if this was a scam! He said yes then paused I said it is he said yes then paused in a mocking manner then said if it were would I tell you. Thinking to myself I said why not you already have my money. At the end of the conversation he said do you have proof that I had paid, I did not. I just want to alert SENIOR CITIZENS I think thats who they are targeing using recipe web sites as traps!

A few days after submitting this report a guy calls me and and says he's waiting for a fa about my purchase, not getting that I never received one like I said. He go's on to call me a twit like I'm hurting his business. First off a true "hospitality" business like a resort should be would take customer satifaction to the highest level. Trust I work for hotels.
I don't suspect I'll see my money back, I don't care I just don't want other people to contribute to these peoples scam.
