The Art of the Scam

Rec.gov does not in my opinion provide accurate information with respect to the "Alert" system whereby they send you "Release" availability options. Then, very single time you attempt to obtain this pass-you NEVER get to actually obtain the ticket. To me, it's just a scam. They send you dozens of emails a day knowing you have ZERO chance of getting that ticket.

They canceled then let someone else reserve

Booked a popular cabin months in advance and 2 weeks prior to reservation they cancelled me due to "closure" and cancelled my upcoming reservation, just looked on the site and now my dates are reserved by someone else for the same time period. Called customer service and yes it definitely was back open and reserved with someone else during my original dates. They should have at least given me the option to re-reserve once it re opened before my reserved dates.. Now I'm stuck trying to to find a place last minute..beware
