fair exchange

Hi

I was hoping someone could offer me some advice about www.fair-exchange.com

A family member has been using it and someone has contacted them based in Malta. They are offering a week stay in the Radisson SAS 5* hotel for £99 for the week. Just need to pay flights. It sounds to good to be true to me (but am I too sceptical?) The person rang yesterday and offered the deal claiming it was ending soon and being snapped up by everyone. They also rang today urging my relative to give Visa details to secure the holiday.

Any thoughts? :confused:

Thanx
