Is prizewinners.ca a Scam? The Scratch and Win Website

I received scratch and win card in the mail in SE Calgary. The card claims that I've just won and should call 403-764-3105 Mon-Fri 10am-8pm and Sat 10am-4pm, or visit www.prizewinners.ca. I want to know if this is a scam. If you have any information, please leave it in a comment below.

It is a waste of your time! of course everyone wins! then they want to send a rep over to your house to get your opinion on their new “alkiline” water! You know it is only a twenty minute presentation that lasts ninety minutes resulting in super high pressure sales! You end up purchasing a case just to get the guy out of your house! Then you seem to have a problem canceling your monthly subscription and a case gets delivered every month until you go to your bank and have your visa cancelled! sounds like fun! not! The rep cannot take cash either!

I don’t bother with these type of things. I always say nothing is for free so you know there is something behind it. Be aware and ignore these types of contests that claim you can win something when you never entered anything in the first place.

The rules are all clearly stated on the back of the card as are the odds of what prize you can win. Everything is completely transparent when you call the number on the back. It’s advertising just like stated on the phone when you call. No one asks for your credit card info or even your last name so I don’t really understand how this is a scam? It’s marketing the company pays for the cards and the prizes and for the cards to be delivered.

I also got 4 hockey sticks in a row on the bottom. This is 100% a scam. Their website has typos and fake information. They send the same card out to everyone. Do not fall for these dumb scams, be safe!

When I called on purpose they mentioned it’s Toronto water and air filter company. I asked why they are doing this, they mentioned it’s their marketing and one of the sales person will come home to match my card to let me know what I won. I mentioned I am not interested as I already have water filterstion system. They do ask are you home owner.

I just got one of these cards in the mail. Not surprisingly I'm a "winner".

Back in the 70's I got a home presentation for a Filter Queen vacuum cleaner. At the end of the song and dance I was given a ridiculous price for it to which I said no. The woman got all upset. I told her she should have told me the price at the beginning instead of at the end of her presentation. I did get my "prize", a little cutting board - for cheese, I think.
