Got call from number 253-333-7305-message left, Jan 2nd, 2012-claims I won some sort of 'free gift'. I never signed up at any mall or other event for any 'gift'. says I have to return call to kimberly W/ CM. 1 888 333 9801, ext AD,

They will hound you and you HAVE to pass income restrictions or they will not let you have it. There are so many restrictions. The company seriously is crap and they lie, lie, lie. You have felons working there. They only care about numbers. RUDE rude people. I don't know how they stay in business. They have been in trouble for violating the do not call list.

I received a similar message from that same number. After researching, I've discovered it's a timeshare company. You have to sit through a presentation/sales pitch to get any of the "gifts".

GOT A CALL FROM THIS #253-333-1371 I THEN REVIEVED A VOICEMAIL FROM RAYMOND TO CALL BACK 888-333-9801 I CALLED BACK AND SPOKE WITH HIM, HE SAID I HAD WON 1 OF 3 PRIZES A $75 VISA GIFT CARD, TRIP TO *I THINK*BRITISH COLUMBIA, OR CHOICE OF STAYING AT ANY MAJOR KNOWN UNITED STATES MAJOR CITIES INCLUDING HAWAII/PUERTO RICO.I ASKED HIM HOW I WAS ENTITLED TO THIS OFFER HE SAID I MORE THEN LIKELY FILED OUT A SLIP AT THE MALL,WHICH WAS PROBABLEY MY SISTER.HE SAID I DID NOT NEED TO PAY ANYTHING, JUST GO UP TO THEIR VANCOUVER LOCATION.TOLD HIM NOT THANK YOU NOT INTRESTED TAKE ME OFF THEIR LIST.

WELL THAT WAS STUPID!!! YOU SHOULD HAVE GONE AND GOTTEN YOUR GIFT. I GET THE GIFT EVERY YEAR AT THE VANCOUVER OFFICE. IM A MOOCH I LOVE PROMO GIFTS YOU DONT HAVE TO BUY AND THERES NO HARD SELL! ID CALL BACK IF I WERE YOU AND MAKE AN APPT TO GO IN AND GET THE GIFT IF I WERE U

I just received a message saying "this is Raymond with Vacation International.  Melody & Steve refered my name and I have won some gifts"  Now...  The number they called me on my direct line at a govermental agency. Whats more ironic is I don't even know a "Melody & Steve".

I also live in Portland, Oregon and received a phone call from "Barbara". She said that this was the 3rd time that she had tried to notify me and that she would not be calling back again. She made some vague allusion to a "prize" that I had won, which is total garbage since I have not entered any contests or have ever (or will ever) give out my phone number. It IS a scam, no matter what anyone says. I have received calls like this before telling me that I have won a free vacation or a car or luggage, it doesn''t matter what the "prize" is, and for only a few hundred dollars they will be more than happy to ship my "tickets", the "luggage", or the "car" to me. Of course had I sent them the money, I would have received nothing in return! Never call these scam artists back and report them to your states Attorney General, the Better Business Bureau and the National Do Not Call Registry. What they are doing is illegal!

1) I have received these calls in the past and they always require you to go to a presentation before you receive the gift but you are under NO OBLIGATION to buy/subscribe/etc to receive the prize, but you almost always have to drive quite a way out of your way to one of these at some strange hour of the day, spending precious gas to get there.
2) keeping the former in mind, even if you say up front you aren't interested at this time, they try to negotiate a deal similar to a car dealership.  If you continue to refuse, they bring in guy #2 who's been around longer and is tougher to say no to.  If you still refuse they say "okay, just go see _______ and they will get you set up with your gift."  This 3rd person tries to negotiate further for a cheaper deal.  FINALLY, after you say NO AGAIN, they take you to a receptionist type person who hands you whatever voucher you're there to receive.
3) The airfare tickets in particular are very difficult to redeem.  You have to fill out everything a particular way or you're disqualified.  You have to send it "certified" or you're disqualified.  You have to redeem it within a certain amount of time or you're disqualified.  
4) Barbara stated, TWICE in fact, that "we aren't trying to sell you anything, this is just how our business likes to advertise."  If timeshares aren't something you "sell" then I don't know what is...
Anyway, SO even after sitting through a presentation for something you already know you don't want, you have to convince three different people that you don't want it, all to receive a prize/gift that they make as difficult as possible for you to redeem.  The only exception to this was a voucher for $100 off a luau package my husband and I wanted for our trip to Hawaii.  The hotel actually sponsered the event and it was a Wyndham resorts presentation.  We did get the voucher which we took to the front desk and they used to discount the luau at their booking desk, but I think this is because the hotel discounted it directly and there really wasn't anything to send in or mail.  So, in rare cases is it worth it to attend one of these presentations.

Being registered on the NATIONAL DO NOT CALL would like to advise that I was left a voicemail stating that I was in a drawing for a NEW CAR or a $25000 cash prize and that I'd advanced to the final drawing and to call 888-333-9801 ext 503. (really? I don't enter drawings full stop) No Name of company or contact person was provided - Highly suspect. Haven't called the number after reading all these posts.

IS A SCAM ALL THEY WANT IS YOUR INFORMATION, IF YOU ENTER IN A CONTEST AT THE MALL OR ANOTHER PLACE GOOD LUCK, I HAVE WON 3 TIMES ALREADY I NEVER CALL THEM BACK ( I AM SO LUCKY) I DECIDED TO PLAY THE LOTTERY AND GUESS WHAT .......YEAH YOU GUESS IT NO LUCK THIS PEOPLE SHOULD BE RUNNING THE LOTTERY, WELL ENOUGH OF THIS PLEASE BE HONEST AND TELL PEOPLE WHAT YOU WANT THEM FOR, ALL THE PEOPLE THAT COMMENT ON THIS ARE PEOPLE THAT WORK FOR DCM WELL GOOD LUCK TO ALL.

To those saying "they don't say won or free!".. uh, yes, yes they f****ng do.  That's exactly what my message said.  I won some free gifts.

I'm also in Portland and I have received repeated messages from Barbara saying "I'm not trying to sell you anything" which sounds like complete deception to me. If they were honest with the purpose of the call I might even consider going.

That's bull because I don't use this phone number on any registration forms, I have another phone for that and you called me on a phone that is not used anywhere so you use auto-dialers.

Raymond NEVER said FREE OR WON! Play back your message. DUH!

How did they get your work number and name?  Pull it out of a hat?  No.   You put it on an entry form somewhere.  These telemarketers aren't mind readers.  How would they get your information i.e. work number or cell number?

Actually no one said WON or Free.  Play back your message.

Dirtbags like these are some of the lowest scum on earth and need to be sued out of existance. Sue them for unsolicited an unauthorized use of you private telephone equiptment for their commercial purposes.

Hunt her down and harrass her a little just like she does to you.

Randon dialing programs that dial enmass without regaud to do not call lists

Eat s*** and die scumbag! Do not call again.

Okay so I'm in Portland as well and am getting repeated phone calls from here and I am positive I NEVER filled out any "free offer" forms. I'm well aware of the consequence of filling out these "sweepstakes" forms and NEVER do it.

Also fortunately my Tel company actually creates a transcript of the voicemail. Here's the relevant potions "your lucky name has been selected to receive a terrific gift congratulations. Please contact me right away at 1-888-333-9801 ......  Ask for Kimberly. ......This gift is on hold for a limited time. Congratulations and enjoy your gift " - If THIS is not an indication of having won something I'm not sure what is??????

This is unsolicited and false marketing.....

Today is Aug 1st, 2010 and I earlier received this same phone call from "Barbara." Only, my Caller ID says it was from "Carla Colwell." I don't know who either of you are, nor care if you're offer is legit or a total scam, I only care that you're telling me I won something -- but only vaguely alluding to what it is. If you want me to call back, how about some more details? Please, the next time you call, how about telling me exactly what it is, how I receive it and whether or not it will cost me anything to collect my winnings. Then, and only then, I'll return your call. Thanks, Me

Okay, I just verified with the National Do Not Call that my number is indeed in there and has been valid for years..and I did not, do not, and will not fill out any forms anywhere at anytime. I don't do that. You have called me twice today and will not answer when I call back. That's okay, it's on my caller ID and your phone bill. I have filed a complaint, and will continue to, each time you call. You better check your procedures again, cause you are lyng through your teeth. Who would want to buy anything from someone like that. Try honesty and fair advertising, it works much better. And yes, I own a time share and love it, but I chose it.

I didn't get a call from the 888 number, got a private number listed to Carla. Two missed calls today, busy tone when I call back. I know for sure I have not entered anything, anywhere, anytime. I am adimant about solicitation calls and "never" enter anything just for that reason. And a time share sales pitch, free gift or not, IS a call to sell you something, whether on the phone or later, it is what it is!

I received a phone call from this number today and as soon as they knew I wasn't interested, i.e. I asked them WHAT I would have to do to receive the prize even thought they told me on the phone I already had won.  Yes, you have to go listen to them before receiving, so they should tell you that upfront.....not that you've won a prize and oh, yeah, by the way you have to go listen to their presentation....no way jose.  As soon as they knew I knew what this was about, the lady on the phone was extremely rude!!!  Glad I didn't agree to their presentation.....

YOU MUST A WELFARE LEACH! YOUR PROBABLY A MOOCH AND THATS WHY YOU FILL OUT SO MANY ENTRY FORMS YOU CANT REMEBER THEM ALL! GET A LIFE
