continental vouchers
« on: November 12, 2009, 02:52:19 PM »
Does anyone know what the deal with these $800 vouchers from Continental are about?  I heard that they are good for anywhere in the world.  I'm interested in knowing more info, as they sound a little fishy.

I have not done the research into them, but personally I'd stay far away.
If something doesn't sound legitimate it probably isn't.

Continental will find out what's going on, and has the right to wipe out violators mileage accounts and/or prosecute fraudulent ticketholders.

How would they have known they were fraudulent vouchers?

According to that logic, the people who bought them should be prosecuted as well
