Free Android Tablet - Received a letter signed by Steve Winsly

[Suan101]

I received a Letter from ELLINGTON CENTRE (In a sealed envelope - my address seem to be hand written!), PO Box 830 Daytona Beach FL 32118, signed by, Steve Winsley Vice President, South East Division.

Letter asks to Call # 800-732-3449. and claim a FREE Android Tablet!

What's the catch?!!

I've got some ocean front property in Arizona I'd like to talk to you about.

Welcome Suan101!

I did a brief search on some keywords there and it looks to be a scam
Be wary of that kind of thing and I would just throw it away.

It's a scam. Basically when receiving mail like this, just ask yourself: did i join any raffle where I could win this? What raffle was that? If the answer to the first is no, or if the answer to the second is not related to the sender, it's a scam.

Call it..report back

I did call them to find out how it goes!

You have to attend a travel club presentation with your partner (Where obviously they would suffocate you to sign up for a 10K membership!!)

You have to have a "major" credit card

Well.. its a bait to get a bunch of people together and get at least a few to sign up for the travel club which itself could be a scam?

Not worth spending a day of 2 adults for a $50 Tablet! (& need to burn gas for 2 hours to reach the place!)

Sack that man!

I saw tonnes of complaints regarding this Steve Winsley character! The letters offering free tablets have indeed reached many homes!

Incidentally, Steve Winsley (The Vice President!!) calls them "Tablet Computer" not just "tablets"!
