They just sent me a message: As Thank You for visiting our website, a $25 Wal-Mart Gift Card and $25 Visa Gift Card CAN BE Yours. Call 1-866-869-213X. Reply STOP to end
I'm just not going to respond. Hopefully once they see that no one responds they will stop sending them.

Home Rewards is one of those WORTHLESS membership programs that NO ONE will voluntarily sign themselves up for.
They are worthless because the membership fees cost far more then any savings you might receive by joining.
they also hide behind special offers on retailer websites such as $$ off your current order. They do have their OWN terms and conditions that NO ONE ever bothers to read ( and they count on the consumer NOT READING THEM) that when you place your order and take the special offer - you are agreeing to their membership fees charged to the credit or debit card used to make your purchase.
They also try to sign you up with $8-$9 checks for being a loyal customer of your credit card company. Cash those checks and YOU SIGN up. Although those checks CLEARLY state that you are signing up for thier membership programs.
VISA has recently put in extra protections against these Scamming membership programs
Visa Tackles Scam Practices
(Wednesday, April 28, 2010)
Visa, one of the world's largest credit card companies, is taking aim at "scam" marketing practices that were quietly used by some of the Internet's largest retailers in recent years.
Retailers will no longer be able to allow third parties to charge a customer's card without the card owner re-entering credit card information, Visa said Tuesday. This is Visa's response to one of the biggest scandals to rock online retailing in years.
Last year, the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation launched an investigation after learning that thousands of consumers had complained about receiving mysterious credit card charges.
The committee concluded that millions of consumers were misled into signing up for so-called loyalty programs with the help of companies such as as Classmates.com, Continental Airlines, Priceline, Orbitz, Buy.com, and many others. Lawmakers said during hearings that these merchants had made an unholy but profitable alliance with one or more of three so-called post-transaction marketing firms: Webloyalty, Affinion, and Vertrue.
Under most of the agreements between the marketing firms and retailers, an advertising page is presented to shoppers while they complete a transaction at the retailer's online store. Many shoppers say they entered their e-mail address and pushed a large "Yes" button on the ad because it appeared to be a $10 cash-back offer or coupon. Many of those who complained say they thought they were being rewarded by the retailer for making a purchase.
Buried in the fine print are the full terms of the deal. Customers are notified that by providing their e-mail address they are joining a membership program and agreeing to pay one of the marketing firms a monthly fee, typically between $10 and $20.
Many people said they didn't see this notice.
Visa's new requirement is designed to send a "clear signal to cardholders that a second purchase is being initiated and protects them from questionable marketing practices," the company said.
With the government leaning on them, many of the merchants involved have severed ties with the post-transaction marketers, which have also taken steps to alter their business practices. They haven't gone far enough, however, critics have said.

Contact your cell phone provider and have them BLOCK text messages. They all offer this - but YOU have to request it.

I got a text from the same number, 347-925-9803. I never opened it because I have to pay for each text that's opened. Thanks for your post, otherwise I would not have known who the message might be from. Now I know it's just a scam and will not want to open it. :)
| janice 2010-05-05 17:29:48 Unknown |
I received the same text. I called the 877 number and she said the name of the company is Home Rewards plus. Said I could get a 200 gift card and 50 walmart card if I paid shipping costs of $5.90. Told her no thanks and hung up.

I do not want text messages from anyone. We pay for each one. I don't know who this company or person is but this is the 3rd text message today already!
| mikey 2010-04-15 01:28:40 Unknown |
Same message, the one before came from almost the same number, last digit being a 7. I got them to stop texting my phone, but my wife still gets them every day.
