My boss received one dated May 6, 2013 in the amount of $1350.00 signed by Charlotte Hoehn. The memo line says Must Be Redeemed For Travel Certificate and it expires on May 23, 2013. Phone number 866-815-6153. My favorite line on the letter is “Vacation Getaways and Cruises are available for a limited time” I called the number and was put on hold. I didn’t want to wait for a person so I hung up. Pretty Crappy and entertaining. It gave me break to dig through the internet to investigate this thing.

This scam is still alive and going on. I received a letter yesterday (05/13/13) from US Airlines to call and get my voucher for 2 round trip tics. It was in an envelope made to look like it was hand written and mailed form Phoenix AZ. Also a blue ink signature (computer generated) from Juli Kyler, Vice President.
Amazes me how long they can keep these scams going on for years. Hopefully peopel are now aware and don’t fall for it.

I work for a check cashing place, and from the description of the check, we would NEVER cash something like that without going through the proper channels. So I would advise you all not to try and cash these checks, because if they come back as fraudulent, YOU will be persecuted.

My parents received a hand-addressed envelope with the letter (not on letterhead) from Andrea Harris, and then the email confirmation with The Fine Print that participants must be between the ages of 30 and 70 and to bring a major credit card (not debit card). They had made an appt but fortunately after speaking with their regular travel agent, discovered it was a scam and canceled the appt. They wound up leaving a message on an unidentified voice mail to phone number 1-866-992-7757. The

They are still at it! I got one today for 1350.00 dated April 22, 2013 and signed by Taylor Barrone. Motherfudgers had me all excited until I tried calling the number which sounded bogus and I found this site. I shouldn’t have started counting my chickens thanks for the heads up!

I feel cheated- I only got a letter – no check! Signed by juli kyler. Must respond by May 15th for the 2 tickets valued at $1350. Stupid people should do their research – I had a pending lawsuit with US Air that was settled before it went to court. Will never fly them again. They should have sent me Cold Stone vouchers- that I would have gone for! (In South Jersey).

Yup, a definite scam… FYI if you do decide to go and “F” with them use an old expired credit card and wipe the strip with a strong magnet, same with your Drivers License… Cover everything except your name and adress; DO NOT give them your birth date, Social Security or anything. Better yet, make the appointment and don’t go. It’ll at least waste some of their time.
I did that to the “Elove” scam people (no show); lifes little pleasures, I guess.
As everyone else is saying if they are asking for a credit card for ID it is a SCAM.
Hope they all rot in hell…

It’s amazing how many of these are being distributed. Someone is paying a lot of postage and I guess the Post Office would rather collect the money instead of preventing the crime. Maybe the Post Office should be investigated. I’m sure the employee knows who drops them off.
