I had to confirm age bracket and that I owned a passport and my own home. So what's the scam? This is a remartably well known scam to Trading Standards. It was featured IIRC a few months ago in a TS sourced article in our local rag. The scam is any mix the perpetrators care to make of everything and aything previous posters have listed - prem rate tel calls, insurance, you won't get out of the presentation room until you've signed up for a villa/time share etc etc: a la carte so to speak. Large barge pole needed, but will it fit on the plane to Spain? |
