Dawn from Coast2Coast left a message for me today (4/26) from 877-718-1400 x1036 asking for my home address and email.  Needless to say, I won't be calling them back, thanks.

Update:  My phone says the call was from Grand Incentive 941-914-9360

I think they're a scam, too, but I wonder about the need to use the tactics you describe.
I'd rather just say, "No thank you and goodbye."  If you feel good about how you handled it, that's your business.  You list a number organizations and/or people at the end of your e-mail who are just trying to get through this life like you are.  Have a heart and help restore civility in this country, please!

It was scary to me, too, because the person had some of my information.  Also, I have no recollection of setting something up years ago, and he claimed that I had and the old company never honored the agreement.  My experience was very much like yours--the guy got really aggressive and kept interrupting me.  He called again today and said that I had requested that he call again.  I pulled up this website and just started reading to him from all of these posts.  Thank you for sharing your experience--it was helpful!

Good for you for hanging up, and I'm here to tell you that you're not an idiot but smart!  What angers me about calls like this is that some people are vulnerable and get ripped off.  I called and reported them to the phone company.  They can't do a darn thing, but at least I tried to do something.  Thanks for your posting!

Did you actually give them credit card information?  Did they get your grandmother's money, too?  The guy who called me was "Jason Bennett" and if that's his real name, I'll eat my hat.  How can an attorney get these guys?  It seems like they're untouchable.  The phone company told me there's nothing they can do.

Thanks for the detailed information about the pitch--they must be reading from a script.  Did you actually sign up through the phone number?

Thanks for the suggestion!  Never thought of doing what you recommended and will do it now.

Hey THANKS!  I never thought of just asking them to cancel the account. Great idea, and thank you for sharing it!

It's unnerving that they had so much information already, and I think you might be right that they get names from travel discounters or something.  I'm going to start asking when I book other trips if they resell the name list.
So, I agree...interesting, and creepy!

Just got their call, hope I did not make a mistake in giving my e mail address .  I told them not interested, but he persisted so I said send me info on e mail and I will check them out and maybe get back to them.  Got the e mail and used info found this site, glad I did but worried that they now have my e mail and could maybe hack into my Mac .

I had the exact same experience that everyone else had.  I listened to the spiel, waiting to hear how much this fabulous deal would cost me.  Only $199!  I told them that I didn't have room on my credit card right now and to call back in a couple of months.  Oh, but it's a limited time offer, don't think we can do that...but if I give them my credit card number now, they won't charge it for a couple of months.

I said, "You actually want me to give you my credit card number over the phone?  When we are constantly being warned to NEVER do that?"  
"Blah, blah, encrypted, no one else will see it, blah, blah."
So I told him that I didn't feel comfortable doing that, but to email me or send me the information and I'd consider it.  

Suddenly we were cut off and he called back but I didn't answer.  

Same old story:  If it seems too good to be true, it is!

Good to see that researching this scam produced these great posts!  "Tom
Page" has left me numerous messages about over $3000 that I need to claim or the money goes back into the company (he's using Cheap Trips references, as well.)  He's now telling me all the dates he's tried to reach me, a guilt tactic.  Please don't fall for this.

This company is completely fraudulent and I would strongly recommend people to avoid them. We purchased a 1 year contract as a promotion but never used it. I purposely did not renew the contract after 1 year. I then received a phone call from Elijah Smith (877-718-1400 ext 1009) at their company. He told me that I had to renew the contract or they would report me to credit agencies. I was at work and was forced to make an immediate decision. I renewed but upon review of my contract that night, I realized that Mr Smith was wrong. I called and he agreed to refund my money. He has agreed to do so 4 times but I have never received either my money or a cancellation number. He says I have to wait for their finance dept who also doesn't return my calls. Mr Smith then told me to return all of the travel vouchers they mailed to me in order to get a refund. I did that too (and have the receipt to prove it), but still no refund.
These people have had 26 similar complaints filed against them in the last 12 months (check bbb.com). Do not do business with them.

I had 5K in property and he wanted me to pay $1,000 and asked why I didn't want to. I told him I wasn't planning on traveling anytime soon. Then I asked him, if I owe all this money, how come no one sent me a letter and this is the first I am hearing of it. His answer? We bill electronically. Um, ok. So he gives me the last four digits of one of my cards (which was incorrect because I have no active cards with that number). I didn't confirm anything. Then I asked him what email he used to try to contact me and he gives me my full name @ domain.com. As if I would ever use my real name for an email address.
