Hello All,

I received the same scratch & win mail card mentioned above on May 15/2014.  I immediately assumed it was a scam when it showed I had won a Samsung Galaxy Tablet (especially since the picture of the tablet shown did not match the product description).  Also, there was no company names or identification on the card.  Never the less, I decided to investigate and play along.
Calling the number, a nice lady greeted me and had a "student" sent to my house the same day (today, May 16/2014).  After talking to the fellow, it became clear that he was not a student.  He wasn't sure what university he went to.  Since I wanted to play along and win a Samsung Tablet,  I didn't press the issue and offered the fellow a beer.
He proceeded with various fancy experiments (the same which I remember doing in Chem 30 back in High School), I asked him a few questions to determine his knowledge, which was surprisingly satisfactory.  He also stated he worked for STAR WATER SERVICES.  I had him pause his experiments while I Googled the company on my phone.  Sure enough, many consumer reviews popped up and the local CTV news station has already gotten wind of the fishy sales tactics.
After he ran out of convincing experiments, we discussed price, which ranged from 3000 to 6000 dollars.  I took a couple photos of his manual, since he did not have any literature to give me (said he company was environmentally friendly).  I'll compare the prices he claimed his competition posts later.
After all was said and done, he finally looked at my scratch & win card.  According to his "master list" I did not win a Samsung Tablet.  Instead, he gave me a 250$ Hotel Gift card (for some un-named hotel... I have yet to search out the legitimacy of this product as it looks like another scam).  He took my scratch card with him.

The process took two hours, as I enjoyed playing along with the gag.  Despite not receiving the promised physical prize, I had a lot of fun questioning the salesman and throwing him off his routine.

Haha its Not a scam, well kind of not a scam.
They are trying to sell the water filtration system that costs like 6grand.
You will more than likely "win" the shower head, witch is actually pretty nifty.
On the bright side the salesmen was totally a stud and was super polite and informative.
Unfortunately his good looks wernt enough to sway my husbands decision. Lol

It doesn't matter where they take the water from, they will always find something wrong with it. They need to be INSIDE though to give you the hard sell necessary to convince you to pay like 10x more than a decent filtration system would cost, which you probably don't need anyway. You really don't want them on your property at all, ever, under any circumstances -- especially if you know what kind of low life is hired to work this scam.

If I was you I would cancel the demonstration.  If you really want to go through with it make them take the water sample from the tap on the outside of your house.

At least I hope you're a shill, otherwise you're about to have your house cased on the inside by criminals, which would make you one of the 2 or 3 people who haven't heard about this notorious scam yet!

Got a bingo card. Made an 'X' had to see where this went. Called the number. It's a water filtration system company. They said I've "won a prize" but have to have someone come over for a demo on their systems and yet will let me know which prize I'm eligible for.  I'm going along with it. They will be here in a couple hours. Ill let the rest of you know how legit it is once done!  Hopefully ill have a new car! But I'm REALLY not holding my breath ;)

Triple bingo card in mail. Won prize. Called number and they wanted information. All they said was contest line when they answered the phone. No company name no nothing. Is this a scam?

no phone calls but got a bingo card in mail for Simple,"Tristar and Respiraide" read other reports on this company and most have claimed it is  a scam in several canadian areas. This is now going around the Calgary area if they try calling us they will be reported to the better business bureau for sure.
