Many people doing "survey's" on the streets saying it's for tourism study or for government tourism etc. It's TIME SHARE Or HOLIDAY OWNERSHIP. You will be asked to give your details and where you are staying, the following day you will get a call to say you are the "Lucky Winner of a Free One Week Holiday" and you must go to a specified hotel to collect your prize. Once you get there you will be subjected to a formal presentation about Time Share or Holiday Ownership .... Waste of your holiday time.

The other similar scam is like a Prize Card that they hand out and you "win a prize" you then need to go to the hotel with them to collect it.... same deal, sit through a presentatation about Time Share or Holiday Ownership.

Don't be scammed! It is time wasting and thankfully we were aware of it this time.

Oh and don't trust them inside places like Water Bom Park either, we did fill out a survey here and it was a SCAM! Again, thankfully we were onto it but it was still annoying getting a phone call!!
