800-728-1695

Message left about first round I had won, now they needed further info.

Recived call from ????. Amber left a message from AVO West. She said my and my wifes names and that we had put in for a draw for a lease of a Lexus Hybrid. She wanted me to call 1-800-728-1695 ext 8323 between 10-3 weekdays. She also gave me a competition number to quote when I called. I have not returned the call but I must say I am curious.

I got the same call today saying I had entered a draw for a lexus hybrid. Kimberly left a message asking me to call back between 10 to 3 weekdays and leave a number that I can be contacted on. The number she asked me to call was 1 800 728 1695 ext 8316. I know that I did not enter a draw because I have been living out of the country for the last 4 years and just arrived back. Probabley a time share deal or something. I am curious but not curious enough to call back. Too much hassle.

It's making the rounds.  I just got home to find a message from a Harold Bell, of AVO West Nanaimo, who wants me to call him back about a draw for a 2008 Lexus Hybrid SUV.  The number he gave was 1-800-728-1695, exttension 8307.

I don't enter draws - does anyone know what the story on this is?

My wife received a call this afternoon from some one working for AVO West. She said that we entered a draw for a 2008 Lexus Hybird SUV and our names are in the "finals", which means we have the chance to win the SUV and 2 other guaranteed prizes out 6. She wanted us to book an appointment with her and come down to their place for a 90 mins seminar. She promised that no purchase is needed and we are guaranteed to win 2 prizes. So does anyone know what kind of deal is that? We don't remember we have entered any draw. But where did they get our names, phone number and the most recent address???

I got a call from "Peter" from (250)716-2650 from Aviawest Resorts Inc.Saying that I won a 3 years lease of a 2008 Lexus Hybrid Suv. TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE.
"Peter" said to call him back at 1-800-728-1695 ext# 8332 and if not available leave ALL my #'s so he can get a hold of me, yeah right!.
I called both #'s (of course I blocked the calls) and they are both for the same company.The operator(machine) told me that if need it more info to go to www.aviawest.com and guess what it is a TimeShare company. Screw that!!!
I know that I did not entered no draws anywhere specially from March and May like "Peter" said, I was out of the country from January till July(fishy eh!!)

so this is how these people get anyone phone #
1.you enter your name and info at any draws for free once (whoever) they got your info, this people collect all the info from all the entries and they sell
the info to marketing company etc.. of course you never bother on finding out when and where the draws is going to be, so you can attend to see if there's        "true draws".
this is how they sell the info
10,000 person's info for $500
30,000 person's info for $1000
so and so is the same with your emails, now your wonder where "spam" company keep emailing you.

Nov.1 Received on my ansering machine, the same message, phone number with different extension, 8307, Linda. I'm to phone back with the convenient time to call me. Don't think I will!

Well it looks like they are still at it. I got a call from Janet from this company to call them back at 1-800-728-1695 with her ext. 8354 between 10-3 tues-fri. She used my name and said that I had entered to win a draw for a 2009 Lexus SUV and something about an early bird draw and that they wanted me to come in to confirm my details. Thought about calling but then googled the name and found this sight, so now I will pass. Thanks

i got a Messang from a woman named Amanda that i had entered a draw to Win a Lexus Hybrid and to phone at 1-800-728-1695 Ext 8351 and to phone between 10-3 tues-fri and that they would be looking forward to my call

thank you, i will not call back that  number now.

like Candice (see two post above), I've received a exactly same call from Amanda yesterday (Jan 21) on the same extension. I didn't entered a draw either and I am interested where did they get my number. Called back and left a message on the answering machine (a/m speaker sucks, so I couldn't get all details). She never called back.

I am not calling again. They are a time share company and posts here https://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-800-728-1695 say the same thing.

Got the call today (Jan 29, 2009) Same M.O. as above. Said I was a finalist in a draw for a Lexus Hybrid. I was at the Motorcycle show in Abbotsford last weekend and entered a few draws there, so maybe that's how they got my name!

I was curious until I found this site, thanks,

If you are curious about the call - contact them!  The details of their Call-Center Director are below Kim Ward.

Not sure where they get their details from and I'm ON the do not call list so this is very strange...

My wife also got a call from Kathy @ aviawest telling her that she had been selected for the Semi-Finals in the draw for the Lexus.  Her extension num was 8312.  What a load of crap - nuthin in life is for free, especially not a lexus!!  I don't wanna waste my time sitting through a stupid sales pitch for 2 hours to buy a timeshare that i can't afford.

Got a call from these people today - I do vaguely recall entering a draw for a Lexus Hybrid at a trade show a while back, and noticing (after I put my ballot in the box) that it seemed to be a timeshare company. So I am putting 2 and 2 together from these posts and figuring that's what it must be about. But they sure took their time in phoning me back! The show was more than a month ago.

Hi all,

Just received a call from alocal Nanaimo # 250-716-2650 the Contact name was Lynn.  I did enter a draw at Boston Pizza but after receiving tis message and doing a little research found the reverse phone # look up wasfrom a company called Aviawest! Googled them and well pretty much answered NONE of my questions!!!
Dare I phone back? If so,  give me some questions you may want answered ~ I'll ask it all!!!!
Thank you for this "Awareness Site"! This crap should be put to an end!!
Next task ~ Why would Boston Pizza (a Franchise but a locally owned business allow this?)!!!
Let's get to the bottom of it!

Marlon, you seem to know how it all works! how can one stop this chain reaction? If you are in the know please let me know!
Thanks

Ps. Just sent a link of this site to them so they are aware of how many people know they are a sham!!!!

Got the same call today as everyone else regarding a draw I had entered for the lexus.  I was curious because I did remember entering a draw at Little Ceasers pizza about a month ago but now I found this site and see what a scam it is.  They told me the draw would be an April 1.  I bet you a million dollars they will call me back saying I won the car or I am a finalist but I have to go to Nanaimo for a seminar blah blah blah.

I would like to kindly verify for all of you that in fact Aviawest is not a scam!!!
People enter Aviawest's draw in all sorts of places The info is collected and entered into a data base. It is all keyed by phone numbers and ballot numbers. Over time if your not contacted on that draw your phone number is rolled over in to the next years draw, (or perhaps a few years from now).
!!!!!!!!!!!AVIAWEST DOES NOT SELL PHONE NUMBERS AND PERSONAL INFORMATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I got a call from 1800-728-1695 ext 8313

She was very helpful and explained everything to me!!!!

I would ask you to call and do the same. I also got some really nice free things for the 90 minutes I spent listening to a fellow speak about vacations. I got a $50 gift certificate and a 2/1 trip to any one of there resorts. Not so bad at all.

I too got a call from this number and was left a message.  Obviously a scam about advancing to the early bird draw for the Lexus.  My message was from Zoe, so glad the name is being changed up once in a while.  Asked me to call back 1-800-728-1695 Ext. 8370 and quote the reference number she left.
