Air Miles is a great reward system existing in Canada, Spain, Great Britain, Nethrelands, and Middle East, by which collectors get points for specific purchases they make.

At their convenience, the collectors can redeem the points for traveling or other services available. However, scammers set up automated phone calls informing the recipients they won 10,000 to 100,000 Air Miles points.

To redeem the points, they are encouraged to press 1, and they are connected to an operator who will take the call live. This is followed by a series of questions asking for personal information, which unfortunately several victims are willing to share.

How to avoid: Air Miles have made it public that they don’t have such an automated call outreach, so don’t fall for it. Report it.
