You get phone calls offering you a gas card, or something, then they go on to tell you about a great offer, then you just hang up. You Google the number and it comes up as a scam and many people have reported them. Then on your bank statement there are two unauthorized charges, one each from two different scam sites. Then, a packet of vouchers comes in the mail telling you that you are winning a cruise and a stay in a hotel, and a visit to Universal in Orlando, all worth$1600. You google the 800 number and find out that this is part of the scam.
This happened to me within the last few days and I'm taking the vouchers and a printout of my bank account to the police. Anyone else?

donna_honeycutt47- I think the last time I put down my CC number was several months ago when I ordered some organic juice. Maybe when I ordered a couple of books. My husband told me today that those places often sell information to shady places like that. NOW he tells me.

How did they get Your Bank Account Numbers, is what I would worry about. I swear its getting to the Point where I screen all my Phone calls because of this same kinda Crap. Its all over Our emails also. The World is a Scary Place out there..

That never happened to me, but I did fall for an eBay phishing scam once. I figured it out and got all my passwords changed in the following 10 minutes though.
