I am writing this in regards to my experience with a vacation share company in Fresno, CA. I was left a message on my answering machine stating that I have won a sweepstake for Digital Dream Stakes aka Shell Vacation Center.

My prize is a 3 days 2 nights vacation to Pismo beach, Las Vegas, or Anaheim. Also a digital camera and 2 free movie passes. The catch was I had to go in to the office and claim my prize and attend a 90 minute meeting.

Well, I called in to ask about the prizes. I was told it should be ready for me to pick up after the meeting. When I arrived to pick up my prize, I sat down for the meeting. It was nothing more than a salesman trying to sell you time share vacation spots.

They wanted $14,000 to sign up. I stayed the 90 minutes to claim my prize, but was later told in order for me to pick my prize I will have to send in $50 to SVC Resorts Gift department to receive it. I am sure that hundreds of other people were hit by this misleading ad campaign.
