Vacation Innovations- Is this a Scam?

[icydog]

Did anyone every hear of this company,Travel Innovations. I got an offer to pay $25 for their magazine and/or their travel package and they will give you $125 in gas. IF you cancel before 30 days the subscription stops if you forget to cancel they will bill you at $9.95 a month. If this is a real deal then does anyone know what form these Gas "coupons come in? Is this a scam?

Check the BBB.

That might give you a little insight on the company.

My sister fell for this one, she contacted the BB and they know the scam well. Don't do it! I think she still hasn't recieved any money back, and its been months. I'm not sure of the name of the co that contacted her, but it is the same ploy. Contact your BB if you still have doubts.

I went to the BBB on line and the only info they have is that it is a travel club and that it had one complaint against it. No other info was given.
I thought the BBB told you what consumers' were complaining about but they don't seem to do that?

$9.95/month x 12 = $120 + $25 up front = $145. So how does that mean they are "giving" you $125 in gas? Looks like you paid for it to me. Or am I missing something?
