I won Holiday of a Lifetime in Tenerife

I guess this is a scam because its timeshare but the resort looks lovely. You have to pay for your flights but it would still be a cheap week away if you can get some cheap flights?

Anyone else got the call aswsell?

    If this is a company called Tenerife Dreams I know a few people who have had these type of calls in the past.

  • I have been getting calls all week from them. First odd thing is that their call shows as diverted so cannot call them back etc.

    They just gave me quote and flight prices seem high. Pretty sure I could find a holiday for that price without any prize involved.

    I sense a scam but not sure how it works..... I have refused their 'kind' offer
