Alas they also call your hotel saying you have won a prize and we don't fill out any of these info sheets as we have been there and done that just so the person could get some money for us attending but it waste so much of your day I refuse to do it any more. But now they have a new tactic calling you, one lady last year had been told she had won a car they will try anything in the end a lot of people got really annoyed and told the hotel to block the calls. It all got too much in the end my husband met the English guy pushing for us to go to one of these seminars and he told him if he contacted again he would go to the tourist police as we were concerned how he got our information seeming we had not long arrived we believe they are getting info from the airport people !!!!!!! They called us 4 times and the older people that get caught up in this suffer they promised breakfast to one couple they sat through the session and when they said they weren't interested. they were given no breakfast and they said they would take them back to the hotel. By this time 3 hrs had pasted and they still had to get back to the hotel and the lady was a diabetic and was quite distressed they weren't even offered a drink !!! So just be mindful of these tactics.
