Description

Received a 4x6" slick postcard in the mail saying "Cruise the World." It further states "Congratulations! You are a FINALIST in the VIKING RIVER Cruise Giveaway! With Airfare for Two." There is exceedingly small print at the bottom and in the middle it says that this is offered by a company called PVI. On the back side, there are two, round grey scratch offs and both matched the winning number. There is a BONUS if you "Call Within 48 Hours To Receive Up To A $100 Amazon Gift Card." I did not call them as this is a version of the above reported scam. So grateful for the BBB.
