Its basicaly a scam to get you to try and buy a timeshare or something of some sort by making you think you won some big prize. Just toss it.

 

[darkxshade]

just call the number repeatedly until they block you

call the number and until you get to speak with someone about your "prize" and when/where it can be shipped dont give up...ask to speak to managers...take down names and numbers at each level you get to...see how far you can get

It's a sting operation. The Feds are after you..........and you know why.

I tried that once with a company that kept calling my house. The guy I was talking to had a very very thick Indian accent. I asked him what his name was. He replies: "Jack Collins".

I started laughing out loud. I was shooocked, and almost 100% sure he lied to me. I asked to speak to his manager, funny, he wouldn't transfer me.

Wonder why? =P

You know telemarketers are assigned a fake name to use if they're asked... no sane telemarketer would give away his/her real name.
