Royal Bahamas Vacationer Radio Contest Vacation Scam Bahamas Nationwide

 I called in to a Radio Contest, answering a question that they asked. Supposedly, after giving my name a number, they said they would call me back if I won. Well I 'won' but during the initial set-up, they didn't only ask my email address, but also the exp date on my State I.D., and my Credit Card details so they can charge me $398, the taxes which they claim. I should have known better! Something didn't feel right. So I called the FTC and they confirmed that this whole thing fit the deacription of a scam. No contest should charge you money, not even for taxes, before going on any vacation. That's bull! The exp date on my State I.D. combined with my name and address is to look me up on public databases to identify me out of a list of similarly named people. Luckily, the day of I wised up. I made phone calls, did more research, and found out I was being set-up. Like the first report mentioned on this website, there's a bunch of hidden fees attached, more charges just to get you. Protect yourself and don't trust these people.
