Re: Possible Scam Email Claiming to be from QVC

Just because it's legit doesn't mean you should take part.

 

Yesterday when I paid for my coffee at Wawa the cashier handed me information about a survey. "Take our survey and be eligible to win prizes."

 

I decided to check it out. On the survey company's website, I didn't like that I had to enter my identifying information first. On the next screen, I found out I could only take part if I joined the survey company's (not Wawa's) rewards program and I had to agree to let them use my information in any way they wanted.

 

Not an enticing proposition. Luckily I could back out and remove all my info.

 

I sent Wawa an e-mail telling them what I thought about their survey program.

 

You can't ever let your guard down.

Yes, I got that too and they were very interested in customers that stream the shows which I don't do. What's the point of streaming past shows especially if the item is sold out 🤷🏻‍♀️.  I need a new modem so streaming can be difficult as my screen freezes

I watch QVC through a Roku app…I’m guessing maybe that counts as streaming? While they give you the option to watch past presentations, you can also watch the channel live, which is what I do. I cut off our cable awhile ago due to lack of use (my husband only watches Netflix and Amazon), so going through the app is the only way I can watch.

Thank you. I have forwarded the email. I am so tired of scam emails, texts, calls, and even door-to-door solicitors. (If I get one more person at my door claiming to be with Duke Energy and wanting to sell me solar panels, I swear I will tear my hair out.)

@PamHeet     I understand your frustration...I have a No Solicitors posted at my front door ....either they don't know the meaning of that word or they just don't care....

@sann Same! It doesn’t seem to any good. My neighbor told me she answered the door for one such salesman, and when she pointed out her no soliciting sign to him, he told her, “I’m not soliciting.” Ugh.

I have a "No Soliciting" sign and I've had exactly one salesman in the past 3 years.  Works for me.  I made quick work of the one that did ring the bell.

Our condo association has a "no soliciting" sign at the community's entrance. It works. I can think of only one solicitation in all the years I've lived here.  They were hanging advertisements on front door knobs for a new health club down they road - associated, not ironically, with a for-profit hospital.  I complained and an executive apologized, saying his own community has a similar rule and he wouldn't like such litter either.  He blamed the incident on the company they hired to do the job.  LOL.  Cross that company off the list of possible future memberships.

The email I received yesterday from QVC was a diamonique  survey.  I haven't bought diamonique or any other jewelry from them for a long time.
