Concerned for my Dad

My Dad gave this company his bank information and almost immediately $595.00 was withdrawn from his account. He was talked into this "cruise" by someone (he doesn't recall the person's name). My father doesn't travel beyond a 2 mile radius. I only hope that the man I spoke with 24 hours later will honor his statement that ALG will refund the money by check to my Dad within 10 days.

I want my money back NOW!!!

I, Eleanor Colleen Scott got a phone call from one of the representatives of this company. She told me that for $495.00 I would receive a FREE cruise for 2 to anywhere I wanted to go, and that I would also receive 2 one week vacations to many places for myself and anyone that I wanted to go with. I said that I just didn't have the money and she said that I could pay $165 a month for 3 months, so I scrimped and saved to be able to pay for this wonderful deal ( so I thought) I even went without some of my medications so that I could pay for this deal. About 2 weeks after I paid for this deal, and after 2 phone calls to ask where it was, it finally came in the mail. The only problem was that as I read this book they sent me, I realized that the girl had lied to me. I used to run a phone room and have had to fire a few people for not telling the truth to customers. I had top sales for a few years before being a manager because I was very honest with people and the fact is not everyone is suited for this deal. I am on a very fixed income and to have waisted all this money was not only a big disappointment, it was also detrimental to my health, just because I fell for this scam. After calling back to them I finally got a young man named Michael and he told me that on the first of this month (May, 2019) The officers of the company were holding a meeting to decide if myself and others would got our money back. I told him that I would send the book back and he told me not to because after the first of the month I would be informed of their decision. I have not heard. I have called them twice since then and finally a guy told me that Michael had left for the day and that he would call me between 10:30 and 11:00 this morning ( May 6th 2019) He never called. I called back and was informed that he would call me today. I want ALL of my money put back into my account immediately. I will send you back your worthless book. Eleanor Colleen Scott

They tried twice....

Some barely English speaking Arab told me I had won an all inclusive cruise to the Caribbean, with no black out dates, to be taken anytime within the next five years, Wanted me to take the next check from my checkbook give him the routing and account #s and write ALG in my register with a $ 495 debit. To make a long story short, he finally hung up after I suggested his father spent an intimate night having anal sex with a female camel and he was the outcome the next day. I called him back at the phone # 262-475-**** , and was told the program was not taking calls from my number. I so wanted to tell him the reason he had kids was that he mated with his goats.

Rude Marketing Call

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
I was called by a representative who was nice and verified my information for their promotion. Then she put me on the phone with her "supervisor" to "give me more information." He was an arrogant and rude SOB who proceeded to say he didn't have the time to talk and hung up on me. NOT doing business with these people.

Insider of American Leisure Group

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
American leisure group aka ALG is one of the main telemarketing campaigns under the hood of greylock resources based in vancouver canada. Around 90% of agents aka openers are working remotely home based in philippines with no established or registered office there. Other campaigns include pureway health where they upsell supplements. Alg and pureway do target 60 or 70 yr old seniors. Other campaigns are a bit small and IMO still on tria phase. All campaigns are overseen generally by a guy based in vancouver named omar shariff (www.omarshariff.ca). If u wan full details and scoop i hv all material evidence about its operation, bec i work with this company before. I need your help so we can end this massive scam with seniors. Pls.

Why would you pay $ without knowing EXACTLY what you were purchasing? You’re obviously not a smart consumer.

In the future, use a local travel agent so you know who you’re dealing with & where they are.

Why save a couple bucks using some twit on the internet who you can’t track down when there’s a problem. You get what you pay for!

Received Call..Beware possible SCAM

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Received call stating my delivery would be coming in the next few days. They wanted to confirm my address.

When I asked who they were ..they responded "American Leisure Group". That this was response to something that I filled out. This was for my mother. She is 92 and extremely disabled and cannot fill out anything.

She is in skilled nursing home. So I know they were lying. When I asked what it was for ..what was I receiving? They replied a free vacation worth over$5000.

I replied that I could not travel and was told vouchers were transferable. They kept trying to keep me on the phone. I told them I did not want or need the vacation. I was told I would pay only the taxes of around $500.

I kept telling them I did not want it. I told them I was looking them up on internet and they look to be a scam company and she just kept talking. I finally hung up on them. The call was from phone #702-996-****

We never filled out any forms.

We did not have any receipt stub for any entry(They were willing to overlook that we did not have one). They called wanting an address and also wanting to know when we would be home to accept delivery. Then they wanted money for taxes. Nope ...My mother did not raise a FOOL.

BEWARE and Check the internet on them.

Some have paid and have not received anything. They are not approved by BBB.

These company american leisure group is one of the main telemarketing campaigns of greylock resources based in vancouver canada. All sales opener agents are working remotely home based in philippines and no established or registered office there.

Other campaigns are pureway health where they sell supplements and prequalify them by age, aspects of health they want to improve. All of these campaigns mainly target senior americans 60 or 70 and up.

If you wish to hv a full scope of its operation let me know. I worked with these guys before.

America Leisure Group is a rip offf

ALG, America Leisure Group , is a rip off taking people information that could be used for more than the actual cost of the cruise. To certify you are the rightful person the company only needs the void check with bank name and check number you gave them, but not your account number if they were not trying to steal. Your name and all of the other information you gave them. With my account mumber and blank amount (any other amount) means stealing

They called me and told me I won a $5,000 in vacation travel only thing they need was 10% in the rest would be taken care of/ covered. When they ask for my banking account routing number, that's when I got suspicious. I put the call on mute and see if I could hear anything in the background I did not. So I went to the website on my phone while I had them on mute and found out that it was a scam. I automatically hung up and tried to call the number back, but I didn't get anything but an answer machine that said one, two, three. I'm glad I had my second intuition kick in to check into this $5,000 travel voucher. Please be aware of these scam artists. They have your number and your name and they will find a way to get your information or your banking information or your income information keep your eyes and ears open we they and have another source of research system near by (computer) to check into this BS. We are in Attack by scam artists with American scammers helping them. Ps. You have been warned!

Ha, it took you that long to get suspicious? I knew it was a scam as soon as I answered the phone.

I had nothing better to do so I kept them on the line, I was acting all excited saying "I've never won anything before" ha ha, knowing they were Pakki's, I asked if I could take a trip there, the guy on the phone busted out laughing and said there were much nicer places I could go.

I was eventually transferred over to"the supervisor" who proceeded to tell me how lucky I was and the 5 grand in coupons, blah, blah, then hit me for the 600 bucks, I asked why it cost so much to simply register, this of course wasn't in their script and the reply was "because this is a promotion" they wanted my bank info from the check as well as the check number, I then asked if they had a website so I could verify they were a real company, she gave me the web address but I googled it instead, Google had scam everywhere I looked, I started to read them off.......she hung up. Ha ha ha ha.

BOGUS BOGUS BOGUS!!!!

Over 200 phone calls from various numbers from this bogus company. "You have won a package worth over $5000 AND a new car!" And then the, let me transfer you to processing who of course told me that I had to pay for taxes, fees and INSURANCE, could I give my bank info. Busted them right then and there. I have turned every number over to the federal Trade Commission. I also tell them that ANY LEGITIMATE contest would NOT contact by phone but instead would send a letter and some kind of legitimate way to make sure this wasn't a scam. One of the callers told me I was the biggest sucker and *** in Arizona for not taking them up on the offer! Yeah, like that didn't give away how bogus they are. I called and left a message that if my phone number was not removed from their calling list I would also turn the matter over to my lawyer. 200 calls in just a couple of weeks! invasion of my privacy and phone harassment! People, when someone you don't know or haven't contacted yourself asks you for your personal information ... I mmediately hang up the phone and run, don't walk, from that conversation as quickly as possible and
