Hi, I won a contest recently. My prize was a certificate for a free 3 day 2 night stay at a hotel for me and a guest at a location of my choice. I pay a 15 dollar processing fee, plus taxes for the 2 nights (between 7-12 dollars they say)
I checked them out on BBB.com and they have a good standing with the BBB. Is this place a scam? Anyone ever do anything similar to this?
 
[quote name='Dead of Knight']You have to PAY for winning a contest? Sounds like a scam to me.[/QUOTE]
Well the taxes make since and seem to fall in line with whenever you win any kind of a prize. The 15 dollar processing fee is a bit odd I suppose, but at the same time such a low ball attempt at scamming me if that's what they're really trying to do.
 
[quote name='Zenithian Legend']Dunno, but since you claim to be his friend, could you get me Sonic's autograph?[/QUOTE]

An even better question: Is the OP Alix Henriol? Though I suppose if s/he were, it would be Wife of Sonic and not Friend of Sonic. ;)

I don't associate with him anymore. The guy has no self control over his greed. He'll be in any game regardless of its quality. :(

Someone really needs to find their new mb address

Yeah, it really does. But at the same time they have a good standing with the BBB, so I'm not too sure. I was hoping some CAGers have used the site, but it's probably too niche...
 
That URL alone screams "scam."

Almost verbatim what I was going to post. The more the URL plainly describes what the site is offering, the more likely "It's a TRAP!!" to bait gullible old people, dense secretaries surfing on their Yoplait break, and the Springer crowd.

At least you don't have to hear Tanya Robert's grating, raspy Brooklyn accent here! "Las Ve-gas is call-ing!" Uh, take a message, bitch.

Well, yeah, this isn't a bullshit scheme being pushed by Tanya Robert's. It's the only reason why I have reasonable doubt about this service.
 
[quote name='Friend of Sonic']Yeah, Pen Island.
What did you guys think it was?[/quote]

Come on, like you have to ask...

I bet they've received an unexpected high count of hits ;O
