Alert
BBB conducted an investigation based on a recent Scam Tracker report and consumer complaints concerning sales practice issues. Consumers allege they are receiving unsolicited telephone calls that offering false discounted vacation packages.
“Received phone call and the caller said they had a great
deal with the Hilton family. It included 4 resort packages with 8 days/7nights
with any Hilton brand resorts, 1 resort package that required a 90 minute tour,
2 airline tickets with any airline carrier, and one cruise package for 8 days/7
nights for the price of $698. As an Hilton member, this was a special price,
but her manager could really knock the price. I spoke to him, a director, and
he said the price will be $598. I started to ask questions and they seem to be
accurate. I gave my credit card info and then I asked another question, and he
said yes you can use it for Marriott, Sheraton, whatever. I can even gift them
To family members and they will never expire. I told him I thought you were with
Hilton. He said we are align with resorts who want to work with us. He
transferred me to back to the first person I spoke to and I told her I didn’t
feel comfortable and to cancel the transaction. She said no I thought we were
good and I said nope cancel. I hung up and then I got a call from my credit
card if I approved $598 transaction. Before I could explain what happen, two
other transactions appeared, one for $498 and another one for $298. All that I
did not approve. I explain to this a credit card company and they closed the
card and it was reported as fraud. The fraud company called times with me
answering and they finally stopped calling me.”
