A woman called me saying they're offering me a free Bahamas cruise. And that I have to pay the $65 dollar tax for each person. I kept asking them what company they work for or what website and they ignored me. So finally I got p****d off and called them out on the dumb s*** they're trying to pull on me and that they f***d up on trying to scam me. And all they could say is "ma'am were just trying to give you a free cruise". I told them this is America and that nothing is 'for free.'
