Complaint Review: Jeff Wyler Eastgate - Batavia

Jeff Wyler Eastgate - Batavia Rip off False Advertisement Lottery Scratch Off Game Batavia Ohio

BEWARE - We received an advertisement in the mail from Jeff Wyler called Play Golden Lottery Game. Uncover the hidden number under a scratch off and it says if it matches you are a winner of the prize. Under the scratch off it list 4 possible number combinations, under each number combinatio it list the prize. This is only to make you think you received the prize listed under your number.

You have to call the phone number listed and give them the confirmation number and which day you would like to come in to claim your prize. I asked the fella on the phone a specific question. "Is the prize listed directly under our winning number the prize we will receive, as it is represented on the brochure?"  All he would say I do not have in front of me the brochure or what prize you will receive. I asked again the specif question, he again would evade answering my questions.

They are falsely advertising and making it appear to be something it is not. You show up and then get attacked by high pressure sales. Try to find out what we won and they just kept wanting to talk sales and asking what kind of car we had and how they wpould take in on trade. We were NOT interested in this. Showed them the brochure and pointed out how it read and they tried to back step their conversation, not knowing how to exactly answer it. They know they are doing false advertising to make it look like something it is not. It may be done in a manner that is barely under the line of law. But this is Scamming people to come in for nothing!

We got this flyer in the mail, and were highly suspicious. I was hoping to find something online about it. Thank you for your post. The picture proved everything, as our flyer has the same #5387196 scratch off. 5387196 lined up above $3500 Cash on our flyer, also. It is clearly documented the odds for $3500 is 1:150000. So the prizes do NOT line up.

I was trying to understand "the catch” and prize alignment on the flyer didn’t cross my mind. Even being such a far fetched idea of randomly winning money, the fine print and appearance of the flyer seems pretty legit, but definitely a rip off to get you in for the vulture sales tactics to sell used cars. Thanks again for your report!
