Years ago I worked at this office. Discount World Vacations. Couldn't get paid!!! I sold a package to a friend of mine and the guy that runs the company said that , "what if my friend would reverse his credit card after I received my commission." so I told him hold my pay until he got the money from my friends credit card which he did. I waited a month and still no pay. Lousy 100.00. And still never got paid. I quit!! He. The owner. Sucks

I keep reading "scam" by people who only got as far as the phone call. Is there somebody out there who has gone further than the phone call and was actually scammed??? I've been offered this for $298, with bogo flight vouchers, and it was disclosed I was to pay port fees, room taxes, etc, etc. along with having to sit in on one of their presentations in Orlando. I said I had to think about it and was told no problem they'll phone back tomorrow. I know it's too good to be true but I'm having a hard time finding somebody who took the silly thing further than a phone call for proof it's a scam. sigh.

Hi Folks,
After a week of investigation by credit card company, they confirmed that this company has done many fraud transactions in the past by offering packages don't even exist. Hopefully, people will be more aware of the scam company by putting more posting here.

Hello folks,

I am an average ordinary guy who just bought into this promotional package. Clearly, it is a promotional package that will be inevitably subject to random taxes, fees, etc. I am sure there will be difficulties finding a room despite the "no blackout" dates option. I am also certain sitting through those annoying time-share seminars with pushy salespeople will be no fun at all. But you know what? Its still a decent deal! Every single comment on this thread is written by people making ignorant, unwarranted assumptions, based on the fact that they tried to "trick" you, by, for example, not telling you about airfare costs, or whatever. C'mon people, if you have actually tried to use these passes and have been blatantly defrauded, then by all means post. But otherwise, please keep your personal OPINIONS to yourself. Can we please try to maintain some small level of collective intelligence on the internet? AND WHY DOES EVERYBODY HAVE TO YELL ALL THE TIME???

I had a call 2 days ago from a company called "my tropical getaways" and was told me that I won a 5 trips from the contest that I've entered at the BC home and garden show. The girl first came on the phone named "laura" congratulate me and quickly went over info of 5 trips in total. I was rushed by the girl to decide if I want to take the free prize, otherwise the opportunity will be going to the next person. The information that Laura gave me over the phone was the same as what I've put down on one of the draws, and that's why I thought I really won a a trip from the one show. At the very end of the conversation, She said that the trips included everything except the port fee and taxes. However, there is an administration fee which is $349/person for the first 2 travellers, and they need to charge $698 US in total. When I asked her further information about the administrative fee, a guy named "Mike Moyer" came on the phone. I asked him how do I know this is not a scam call. He then gave me an an email address to check. I went to http://www.mytropicalgetaways.com/, the address matches the info that was given by Laura . I have never thought of the website can be a scam at that time. Mike Moyer said I have to pay them $698 in order to secure the prize otherwise they will have to give it to someone else. I was overwhelmed and I gave him my credit info to secure the package. Then I was transferred to another person who does the verification process. At the end of the call, she gave me the contract no and customer service number at the end in case I need further assistance. I told my friends around the whole thing and they told me I was scammed. I tried to call them back at (954)921-2280. My called was directed to voice mail belongs to "Discount World Vacations". The name of the company doesn't match what I was told my Mike Moyer, but the voice of the mailbox was Mike Moyer. I am sure it was the same guys I was talking to earlier. I still left messages for them to call me back. I then call my credit card centre to inform about this fraud transaction. Mike Moyer called me the following day and inquired the reason about cancelling the package . I told them I am not interested in the package anymore and need him to reverse the claim. I told him it's not right to pay for something that I won. Mike Moyer then said I did't win a prize, I was just 1 of the 50 people chosen for this package. I told him that he's a liar. I was told by somebody that I won the contest that I've entered at the home show, and now you are saying something different. He is a total scammer!!! I hope I've read all theses comments before I received the scammer calls.
