Western Travel Scam
When I said I did not fill out anything like that, she tried to gaslight me (she could likely tell I am a senior citizen) and said it was back in March and I must have forgotten. I told her I would NEVER fill out such a thing because I am physically unable to travel.
Then she said maybe a friend or family member filled it out for me. I told her that didn't happen because they know I am too disabled to travel.
She kept on with things like, "It's free!" "We're not trying to sell you anything." "But your ballot was chosen. You won!" I reiterated, I am disabled and cannot use the prize. She finally gave up, but she was more polite than most scammers at the end of a call and wished me a Merry Christmas before hanging up.
There are a lot of 5 star Google reviews for them. Too many to be real.
While searching for more info, I found the page that had been Western Travel has changed their name to Western Saddle. The address listed is the same as when they were calling themselves Western Travel. But now the phone number listed is 863-800-0752.
Western Travel Calls
They always say that I "filled out a ballot box in a mall or shopping center" with my information. I have NEVER done such a thing as I'm very very particular about my privacy and routinely remove my info from public records online.
If you call the number back it's always an innocent individual who is confused on the other end. It's obvious they're using people's numbers as a front to where they are really calling from. I can't stand them and I can't figure out how to report them or make them go away forever. I'm sick of the false calls to my phone they're a waste of my time. Im waiting on multiple local calls from doctors and financial agencies and they're disturbing me.
They claimed I had entered a sweepstakes during the holidays (via ballot box that they had placed in many shopping areas).
They said I won the sweepstakes and said I had two options to choose from:
4 days 3 nights anywhere in the US or 8 days 7 night anywhere between US Mexico and Canada
They had me answer if I had a partner (yes or no)
If our HHI was above $60k (yes or no)
and if we had any travel restrictions (yes or no)
They asked me to choose which vacation I wanted to go on, and I said they were a scam, and they reassured me they were not and they wanted to get their travel business name out to the public and didn't "want my money" (which I never even mentioned). They said once I chose I would speak to their senior manager to claim and I would need to come to their "office" in clearwater to come pick up claim details.
They hung up on me when I told them I was uncomfortable moving forward. Super sketchy.
