Description

Mailer said they were inviting myself and my spouse to attend Travel Exhibit 2024. It did not say where. It did promise 2 complimentary round trip airline vouchers valid for travel in the continental USA, along with a 2 night stay at one of over 1000 Marriott's, Hilton's or Hyatt's (with option to extend). It said you have 2 days to respond before they "awarded the travel vouchers to an alternate guest". It also said if your were one of the first 50 callers you would "receive a $100 dining savings card good at TGI Fridays, Black Angus Steakhouse, Bar Louie, and many more". The letter did state that "this correspondence will serve as your final notice". It was signed by someone calling themselves "Rich Allen" from Travel Exhibit 2024, 1-855-540-9185. Along side this name/info was a symbol of Embassy Suites, by Hilton. Under which was a disclaimer stating that all trademarks are property of the respective owners (across the top of the letter were listed the names of SOUTHWEST, UNITED, and FRONTIER in big bold letters. It also said you could "fly aboard all major domestic airlines) along with other disclaimers, the last which stated that this was "Not a Time Share or Real Estate Offer". This Mailer used standard Presorted U.S. Postage. Postal Permit #850 and was mailed from zip code 32114, no other address information is listed anywhere on the outside or inside of the flyer. An inquiry of the zip code showed it came from Daytona Beach Florida. The letter did have an awards claim number on it, though I am not sure if it was unique. WE DID NOT CALL THE 855 PHONE NUMBER.
