On Monday I got a call saying I won a free photo session at Zellers. As I had participated in a contest to win a trip to Cancun, I thought it was normal, that I had won one a smaller prize. So I took an appointment, thinking it would be nice to have a family picture, with FH and our dog. Then I didn't feel like going, dialed the number back to cancel, and there is no answer, it is a telemarketing firm. I made an online search and it turns out that it is fraud. Do I risk something? They have my name, address, phone number and e-mail from the contest.
