My name is Rebekah and i am from Australia, I am unfortunatly another one of SPECIAL T TRAVELS cases that sucked me in soooo bad.
It was very late at night and i was 7 months pregnant should have been in bed but NO i was playing on the computer, anyway next thing I got a pop up saying i was the 50 000 person to click on to a web site and that i had won a prize and to call this number, 407 896 8680 ( which later on trying to call this number was useless because it was diconnected)
I called and was told i had one a trip to the Bahama's everthing was payed for apart from the airfares and spending money.
I asked alot of ??? even asked if this was some kind of scam, but NO NO NO mam you are a lucky WINNER. i was then told that to recieve this all i had to pay over the phone was $898 and my tickets and paper work would be sent out to me in ten days. I didnt have a credit card so stupid me rang my mother inlaw and ask to borrow the money off her.
After giving the girl the credit card number she put me on to her so called supiviser NICK CARSON who then went on to tell me how lucky i was and that he would start the process for me, in this time he went on to tell me that he was exspecting a baby also. (BET THAT WAS ALOAD OF CRAP TOO..
Anyway cut a long story short, all they could get out of the card was $449 which they sent me an email to confirm this transaction and said they would try for the rest the following day. But it was enough for them to still send out the tickets and paper work.
That was the 7th of july 2005, 10 days later no tickets in the mail and all the numbers i had to contact them on were either Disconnected, or unreachable. I have sent them emails and NO response.
So i am to this day unsure how much money they have taken out of the credit card all i know of for sure is $449. I am going to speak to my mother inlaw to let her know but she has been in hospital at the same time and i am sooo ASHAMED for falling for such a stupid SCAM.
So if anyone can help me to take this futher i would Love you guys. Im due to have my little baby boy any day now and to be able to solve this would just make things soo much easier Mind wise & Money wise..
