They will say they’re part of trip advisor. Do not say yes if they ask if you can hear them. Make sure to check your bank accounts and any charge on your phone. I’m going to do that right now.

This number has been calling me multiple times about a free trip to the Bahamas and they say lol you got to do is tell be people bout them to launch there business and be at the right age to be able to get the trip.

‘This is Trip Advisor calling on a recorded line can you hear me?’ I always hang up before they get too far into the scam. They have called multiple times from different numbers. 406-266-7192, 406-201-3608

The first time I listed the longest. Something about winning a trip but I was in the middle of the event and couldn’t talk so told them to call another time and hung up. Since then they keep calling.

These people are looking for your Credit/Debit card information. They call you by using someone else’s cellphone or landline so you can’t report, track or block them. I know because they’ve used my cellphone to make their fraudulent calls to other scam targets. These people have no class. I’ve been called twice a day for three months.

Got a phone call from Lilesville, NC at 1-704-270-5261. The person said "this is Brandy from Customer service from Trip Advisor – can you hear me." I replied yes and she suddenly hung up.

One local number called and I answered and they didn’t respond. I got a call from another local number right after and he said he was from Trip Advisor and we were on a recorded phone call. He asked if I could hear him. I hung up. There is a scam going around that wants the victim to say yes so they can scam them and have "proof" that they authorized it. I’m on the national Do Not Call list so I believe this is illegal.

Received a call on my cell phone on Friday, 10/13/17 at 2:14 pm. Female caller (I believe she said her name was Rachel, but not sure), said that the call was being recorded, and that she was a trip advisor, then asked if I could hear her ok. I, without realizing initially that it was a scam call, replied “umm hmm” then immediately hung up. I will definitely be keeping close watch on my accounts, not answering calls from any number I don’t know, even if the area code and prefix are familiar (this number had the same area code and prefix as me, and caller ID said it was from a neighboring town), and freezing my credit!

Allen –

Victim Location 77651

Type of a scam Travel/Vacations

When answering the phone, the person identified himself and saying they were calling on behalf of Trip Advisor. Then mentioned something about recording and asked "Can you hear me alright". I paused for a few seconds, then said "yes, what is this about?"….they proceeded saying something about cruises, etc., I said I was not interested and hung up..and then I remembered hearing about that specific scam! It was our area code used in the phone number, (I answered, thinking it might be one of the grand-kids) and being as we had just came back from vacation, Trip Advisor, made it sound more legit. Hopefully, because I paused a second or two before saying "yes" and "what is this about" was said all in one sentence, they will not be able to use the "yes" for anything. I did call the number back later on and someone answered with "Senior Care Authority" and proceeded to tell me they were offering cruises, etc. The guy was going to send me over a "specialist" because I told him I was not interested. It was a "live" person I was speaking to. I hung up at this time.

This call came in as a local call and I had inquiries in that area. I never answer these calls if they are not local. Always say "No" when an unidentified caller ask you a question up front and then hang up.

She contacted that Marriott and they said they have received a lot of
