Good Evening Everyone,

I like to first say I love this site and reading some of your folks work...Great work.

I know this site is mainly for email scams but I thought I might ask you folks for a little help on this. Here what I got in the mail. This came in a w2 style envelope, you have to tear off the sides first. It was blanked with my name "To be open by: MY Name" with secured document and picture on the American Flag inside a map of the US. I will try scan this in as soon as possible. Anyways, It claims I have won two round trip in US with a $30 gift card to Red Lobster or Olive Garden (they even imprinted there logos). Also if I call in the next 72 hours I will get a $300 grocery voucher.

The number they want me to call is 1-888-768-3713 x102 (Monday thru Friday 10-9 and Saturday 10-2 EST).

After doing some research I found out the company behind is follows:

Millennium Travel
4647 South Clyde Morris Blvd.
Port Orange, FL 32129

This what I found out on the internet on them

http://www.orlando.bbb.org/codbrep.html?wlcl=y&id=36000188&cons=y

I know these guys are scum. I was first thinking about contacting acting like I was Richard Cordray (AG for State of Ohio) and have them fax or mail any crap to his office and maybe he go after those guys.

Now I'm not sure how to mess with them. It not like it would done in email. I would have to call them and I'm not to crazy about that (although I would use a payphone).

Should I be careful since they are in the US before I procede with messing with them.

Please give me some help.

Hi.

While this type of business practice is unethical, sneaky, and skirting the edge of legality, it isn't Advance Fee Fraud, which is what we deal with here.

If you want to mess with them, go ahead - please don't post about it here, though.

Thank you. Very Happy

I'll move this thread once you've seen it.
