Hotel/Motel Scam
This one is so simple it is shocking
PLEASE PASS THIS ONE ALONG TO YOUR FAMILY AND
FRIENDS...........Hotel/Motel Scam.
This is kinda scary if only because of how simple it is. You arrive at
your hotel and check in at the front desk.
When checking in, you give the front desk your credit card (for all
the charges for your room).
You get to your room and settle in. Someone calls the front desk and
asked for (example) Room 620 (which happensto be your room). Your
phone rings in your room. You answer and the person on the other end
says the following, 'This is thefront desk.
When checking in, we came across a problem with your charge
cardinformation. Please re-read me your credit card number and verify
the last 3digits numbers at the reverse side of your charge card.
'Not thinking anything you might give this person your information,
since the call seems to come from the front desk.
But actually, it is a scam of someone calling from out side the
hotel/front desk. They ask for a random room number. Then, ask you for
credit card information and address information. Sounding so
professional that you do think you are talking to the front desk.
If you ever encounter this problem on your vacation/ stay, tell the
caller that you will be down at the front desk to clear up any
problems. Then, go to the front desk and ask if there was a problem.
If there was none, inform the manager of the hotel that someone called
to scam you of your credit card information acting like a front desk
employee.This was sent by someone who has been duped........and is
still cleaning up the mess.
P.S. Please everyone, consider spreading the word by forwarding this email.
Who knows, you might just help someone avoid a nasty experience.
AND PLEASE REMOVE ALL THE NAMES AND E-MAIL ADDRESSES OF MAILS YOU FORWARD, USE BCC TO ADD ADDRESSES
Thank you.
