bait-and-switch = scam

Haha, ok, just wanted to make sure it worked.

This has been a VERY entertaining forum. I've spent far too much time reading it. I was looking for flights for my boyfriend and came upon the atcostflights.com... Great looking prices!!! Once I clicked on the "Buy Now" and it gave me a phone number to call; right then I knew something was deffinitly WRONG. When I went to google it, before I even typed the word after the sites name in the bar, 'scam' and 'fraud' were already the folowing predicted text. Lol!

After that I've pretty much just surfed the net through all of the travel horror stories... and the occasional con poster, claiming that they would most certainly use atcostflights.com again. Haha. Ah, but I guess the old Russian has to feed his family too. It seems that with all this energy that he has put into keeping the scam going, that he could put it to some better use! It's entertaining because you know which texts are BS. It may be weird, but everytime I read one of his responses (/employee...etc...), I hear the words in a deep voiced russian accent in my head.

Do NOT use ------> atcostflights.com !!!!

Enough warning signs are scattered across the internet for these scams, take them to heart.
Also keep in mind that, though he may decide to change the name (and probably already has), his tactics will remain the same.

Safe travels everyone! Stay sharp!
