Lower credit card rates

Recorded message states it is a political survey, but advertises a "free" cruise at end of survey. Calls cannot be blocked.

It seems to be an attempt to sell a 2-day cruise to the Bahamas in exchange for completing a political survey. The cruise is supposedly free, but fees are required for taxes, around $59 per person, which is not stated upfront, before the survey, but only at the end. It is a hard-sell pitch and people are told that the offer is only momentary - it will not last, so they cannot think about it or discuss it with a spouse before committing. They are required to give their credit card or bank information right then. If they go through with the transaction, they are told about other fees as well, such as fees for parking the car, meals, and room upgrades. In all, it comes out to be in excess of $200 per person - none of which was sought out by the customer/victim/recipient of the call. It may not be a scam per se, as I do believe the cruise is real, but it's certainly an unsolicited sales call and it is disguised as a political call to get around DNC list requirements.

I can't remember, but it was an advertisement
