*Consumer Comment: Why is this a ripoff report?
This non-existent entity sends fake checks (or "cheques"!) to poor neighborhoods saying "We have attempted contacting you on several occasions."
Everything about the scam is fake. The phony check, the ersatz blue ink signature, the bad English, the play on "US Airways, the bulk-rate postage, the bad lines of salesmanship -- all without saying how they hope to take your money. On telephoning, one gets to hear the fake English accent on the telephone recording, the long wait, and finally, how they fail to answer the phone.

Why is this a ripoff report?
AUTHOR: Phlyer - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Wednesday, March 13, 2013
I got the same offer in the mail and called their number. I talked to a telemarketing person who said that it's a promotional deal by a discount travel agency who is giving "free" tickets (actually, more like discounted because you have to pay some minimal admin costs plus taxes) in exchange for sitting through a sales presentation. My guess is that they will try to get me to sign up for a membership in their travel club or whatever, which I'm not planning to do. In any case, so far, at least, I don't have any evidence that it's any more than a high pressure promotion. If it turns out to be a scam, I'll write a rebuttal. By the way, I'm generally skeptical, not ignorant or a sucker and I don't live in a poor neighborhood.
