got a messenger service ad, is it legit?

[csyberblue]

I'm browsing the forums here and I get a windows messenger service box to come up telling me that I won a free trip to the Bahamas. I have to call a certain number at a certain extension and say "I am the winner!" (number and extension are provided in the popup).

Normally I'd blow this off as some stupid pop-up ad, but I am kinda curious, could this be legit?

are you serious?

It's legit. Give them your CC and SSN and you can go to the bahamas.

You sure this came from ATOT?

I don't think it came from ATOT, but it did happen to pop-up when the only browser window I had open was one for ATOT.

Turn off the messenger service.

Best reply so far.
Not neccessarily informative, but best.

Definitely a scam. The number you will call will charge some insane per minute fee (~$2500)
