please forgive my spelling on previos post as i missed the a off Carla.... Sorry...
Very much look forward to your response re; call cost
OnceInaLifetimeHoliday.com-Scam?? Please help!
Have been receiving upto 30 pre-recorded messages a day from this outfit even though have spoken to them and demanded they desist.
Have spoken with BT who claim not to be able to block the calls and the Telephone Preference Service appear to only be able to deal with calls made from companies in the UK.
I have now sent an email complaint to the Attorney General in Florida at aq.mccollum@myfloridalegal.com and suggest that if enough people do likewise so that they get swamped with messages they may take some action.

This is fantastic! Thanks to you all. I too received a phone call from this company purporting to be from once in a life time holidays, working in conjunction with Mastercard. It would appear that my conversation went very much the same line as all of these others. It was a lady who gave her name as KIMORA Agent id number 210. She told me that the company were based at LAKE MARY at 954 WILLOW GARDEN COURT in FLORIDA. And there number was 001 213 5371099. I got all of these details as I too did not believe that a company working with Mastercard offering me a free holiday would want me to give up my credit card details!! For those of you that watch Fonejacker, it was very much like a particular character!!!! I was then informed that the holiday was not free but actually cost £397 for 4 people but did not include flights! Also after quizing her about the reason she wanted my card number, she repeatedly told me that my calls were being recorded and monitored so I was protected! As if that made it better!! But Im pleased to see that people have written here warning others not to be taken in by these vultures and I really hope not too many people have been stung by them. If you have I hope some of the above details help.

I also have just recieved the same 'scam' call just afew minutes ago, telling me id won a holiday to mexico and florida ! I was asked for the expiry date of my visa card (which i gave), then after giving me more information on the so called holiday, I was asked to verify my card number..NO WAY was I going to give out my details. The caller got quite aggitated and passed me onto his 'manager', who again asked me for my details. I told him also that I wasnt prepared to give out my details, and that if indeed this was legitimate, that they wouldnt be asking..then politely told him goodbye ! Dont know if this is being investigated by anyone, and unfortunately, as I found it quite hard to understand the caller, i didnt get the name of the 'so called company', and ofcourse, their number was witheld !

The above post would seem to be a fake - not least because Brits would type "Orlando" and not "Orlando fl."

What a surprise!
Using English might be more convincing.
What on earth is he up to now?
