- susie q replies to susie q| 5 repliesOops, I entered the wrong number on top of page should be 905 241 1023 sorry
- correct replies to susie q| 2 repliesI had a Phone call from 416 241 1034 same scheme as all of the other posts on this board, after awhile I asked the guy if he had ever seen the movie Pulp Fiction and then he got a bit worried, told me the conversation was being recorded! [***]!
- libraryI just had the same call - spoke to a woman I could barely understand at first, then her "senior Mgr", William Lee. (strong accent). He went through exactly the same stuff, assuring me it wasn't a timeshare. The woman told me I didn't seem very excited, and I said that usually, things like this just don't work out like we've been told! There are only certain times you can pick up your prize, so that was a big tipoff. I then said I had to discuss it with my spouse, and hung up. Went to Google, and found this!

- gie0726somebody called me a few mins ago numbers 41665485984 and 9052411058...first they are persistent but when i told them i dont have a job and that my husband was working in wall-mart. they told me ok goodbye.
- Time Wasted| 1 replyThanks all for posting about this. Got 905-241-135 calling me about 10 mins ago on sat. morning. As the lady and her supervisor were blah-blah-blah-ing about the same things everyone mentioned, I googled the f-source company and found this site. If it wasn't for their strong accent so that I understood what they were saying right away, I would've hung up much earlier instead of patiently trying to comprehend the purpose of the call. Upon reading all this, I eventually told them to NOT CALL ANYMORE and hung up.
Has anyone actually checked out that address (1510 Drew Rd. #6, Mississauga) from a distance outside? Is it as dodgy as I'm imagining it to be?- Caller: f-sourse international

- Jen| 2 repliesSame story as the rest of you. A few thoughts on how they get the identifying information:
- whitepages.com or similar will give all the information about address and phone number.
- they simply GUESS that you are married -- many people are -- and if you say you are not, they tell you to bring someone else (as a few posters have mentioned).
- they also GUESS at your age and household income, by doing two things: 1) using a broad enough age range that many people will fall into it and 2) suggesting the answer they want, since their target is people 27-65 years old who have an annual income of 60-65k, since those are preople who:
-- are generally working, with kids, so want free stuff, have the income to support a timeshare or will qualify for credit cards, mortgages and other things identity fraud is used to get, and
-- are generally working, with kids, so don`t have time to be too vigilant about checking into things until it is too late.
Good for all of us who said NO to fraud!!- Caller: F Source International

- piazza_is_an_IDIOT replies to PickeringDid you just seriously post the similar message 5 times? You are the same dumbass who wrote all of them using different names ..... get a life and a REAL job that has ethics, you idiot.
You definitely work for this Fsource company, otherwise your typing skills would be much better.
The only thing YOU won was the right to be called 'super-dumbass'.
Folks, I got the same call last night ... I will NOT be going now.
Anyways, all the suggestions you have made are good, but I will take it another step further ... and I will let you guys know later this week what it is ... I think it's a 'dusey' of an idea ... I can't say right now what it is since these company people are 'lurking' on this forum.
The only way I can think that these guys got our info, is that last year, we were looking at getting some appliances at Bad Boy ... and of course you have to fill out paper work ... and that must be where they got our info, since Bad Boy is listed as one of their sponsors on www.premiumbuyers.net (which is the website that shows up from the link that was posted in one of the earlier pages).
Oh well ... I won't lose my evening thanks to this forum.
Take care folks ... and fsource, smell you later..... - 416-548-5983have called repeatedly (4 times) and continue to call when they have been asked to stop calling

- Henry Roberthey.. you people are saying like its a scam.. but let me clear this thing to you that i was thinking the same when i received this call from this same number because i have never filled out a coupon at that time, but i believed that person (i don't remember his name) & i went to their Head Office at Drew Road, Mississauga..
at that Time i was thinking the same that it would be a Time Share Company but no.. no one force you to buy any thing.. you just have to be there for 60-90 mins in order to know about their company..!!!
when i followed the whole procedure & after drawing the prize i got a Television.. it was 42" Plasma Set powered by Toshiba..!!!
so, its not that kind of company..- Caller: F-Source International

- SCThis is a scam!! Watch out because you never knwo what they truly need you there for!! Whatever it is what company would give away free stuff without anything in return?? Who the heck can survive on not making money. The person that call me today was John Michael with a very Indian or Pakistan accent. Come on.......what indian/pakistan would have a english or italian like name????
Anyway the number they called me from on the display is: 1-905-158-1526 the info they gave me was:
fsource international
416-548-5983 x108 john michael
6175 hwy 7 unit 6
woodbridge, on l4h 0p6
Hwy 7 and 27
Now first of all looks like they changed there address or they have more than one location. I am curious to drive by and see what the heck is there. Anyway I told him i would call him back if i was ever interested. I have no interest in free things. Working for things in life works fine with me!!
Never trust a company that does not have a website, does not give you info on what the ballot was for, does not give you info on the company on the phone and most of all tells you that you won a prize for nothing and free come and pick it up and leave. give me a break!
The people calling are actually most likely calling through Internet Phones and are in Pakistan or India or China due to cheap labour. That is why there is so much background noise when they call you. It is a very large call center that they are calling from. I am an internet marketer and provide outsourcing services (not off shore!!) and know how outsroucing works. Especailly off shore outsroucing. I have many clients that come to me and tell me that they tried off shore and it was a horrible experieince. So anyway do not give them time of day and tell them that you will call the police for harrassment. i am sure they will leave you alone.- Caller: F Source International

- JennyM replies to KIts now the Woodbridge address again.
I listened to everything, since sometimes my uncle fills these things out, but was appalled that they knew my combined income. They asked me if I was 27-65 and I said no. They asked me again, and I said no again. They asked me again, and I said "do you want me to lie?" They said no, that I would be talking to a manager. When they finally transferred me to 'William Lee', 416-548-5983 x828, he told me to bring non-age info ID because if I bring ID that says I'm under 27 he could loose his job.
The address is now 6175 Highway 7, Unit 6, Woodbridge.
They even said they would hold while I called my husband to book a time for tomorrow, I just picked a time and then as soon as I put down the phone I googled F Source International and found this site. Definitely not going tomorrow!!! - didn't believe itI received the same call this morning only to go to Hwy 7 in Woodbridge. I too was sceptical and at the end of it all seems I too was out the age range, however, they will deliver the prize of my choice right to my door.
Should I hold my breath? - SCjust got the call now. when i *69 the number it was 9051581584. Sean the manager gave me his ext. 4165485984. Same scam that i field out a ballot, etc, during christmas time, But the funny thing is the wrong city and postal code they had. i live at the boarder of 2 towns so i could use either or city, postal but one takes longer than the order for mail to be delivered. they are probally using 411 to get everyone's information. this time located at 6175 hwy 7 unit 6 woodbridge major intersection hwy 7 & hwy 27

- Thanks for the Info!!| 1 replyWe got the same call this evening. They were quite persistent and they were shocked that we questioned their company. We even got a "supervisor" on the phone. Their method of operation was exactly what was described above, and they are insistent that it is not a timeshare etc. Unfortunately, we did make an appointment for pick-up of the prize and they have one of our cell phone #'s. When they call back my plan is to let them know that if I receive another call both of the following things will happen:
1) I will be calling the police and registering a complaint for harassment.
2) The harassement will be turned back to them as I will be visiting the location but not to collect a prize. As Russell Peters likes to say, "Someone gonna get hurt real bad!".
I understand what they are doing is under the umbrella of the law, but it is a colossal waste of time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!- Caller: F Source

- SC replies to Thanks for the Info!!they called back and i freaked!! they gave me a website address of www.pbsinc.ca and it redirects to: http://www.premiumbuyers.net. it is just like a timeshare just with extra benefits i guess you could say. you pay a monthly membership and you can use different type of servcies and vacation spots etc.
SCAM!!!!!
p.s. the people that are positing on here that say it is legit are people from the company.
