Raleigh, N.C. — Did you get a letter in the mail saying you've qualified for two round-trip airline tickets from U.S. Airways?
Many WRAL viewers contacted 5 On Your Side after receiving one over the past few days. But 5 On Your Side cautions – you did not win airline tickets.
The letters come on official-looking U.S. Airways letterhead, but the airline says it's not affiliated with the offers in any way. The offer claims to be "personal and confidential" with tickets worth up to $1,400. The sender also claims to have attempted to contact you several times.
5 On Your Side found out that the ultimate goal of the letter is to get people to join a vacation club. When 5 On Your Side called the phone number on the mailing, the operator said it was an open house put on by East Coast Travel.
A quick web search uncovered numerous consumer complaints about East Coast Travel from people saying they were pressured into paying thousands of dollars for travel club memberships.
The company appears to operate under different names in multiple states and has used the names of several different airlines on their offer letters.
