CANADA - Don't say we didn't warn you.
Today I received an automated call saying I had won a trip to Cancun Mexico.
I hung up and put my cellphone away.
Not that I don't want to go to Mexico. I'd love too, but its just a telemarketing scam.
The stupid thing is my cellphone is registered on Canada's Do Not Call List but apparently the telemarketers either don't care, or they're DELIBERATELY calling just because I am on the list. Either way I ended up filling out a complaint against what I referred to as the "Cancun Mexico Scam".
I encourage other Canadians that if you get a telemarketing call visit the DNC website and leave a complaint. Every complaint is worth a fine of up to $15,000.
