Clearly, these calls are a classic Marriott impersonation scam. Callers use a local‑area‑code number and a robot script that promises a free hotel stay if you press 1. The tactic exploits recent bookings, making it feel legitimate. Never share personal info or press any keys on such unsolicited calls. Hang up immediately, then block the number through your carrier or phone settings. Report the incident to the FTC or your local consumer‑protection agency. If you’re unsure, verify any offers directly with Marriott’s official 800 number or website before taking action.

Three robotic calls were received in one week, all claiming I'd been randomly selected for a free hotel stay.
