BMW N.A. Car Show in Edison ***SCAM OR FOR REAL??***

Viral · 08-31-2009, 08:07 PM

I just got a call (they left a message) from a guy claiming to be from BMW. He said there is a BMW car show in Edison where BMW will be unveiling some new models and other corporate info. He said that I would be compensated $125 for my time and that I should call him at some toll-free # to get on the guestlist.

He did not leave any details of time/date, but I'm assuming the event will take place in the next few weeks.

Anyone else get this call?? Any insight would be great......thanks in advance
