    Has anyone else recieved one of these? I did have an extended warranty on my truck but I thought it expired a little over a year ago. And this says factory warranty. Not sure if it's a scam.

    ^They're organized i.e. the management will have to pay the high-pressure telemarketers more money to scam on holidays.

    They are going to try to sell you an extended warranty.
    I just went through this with my Grandmother.
    She actually called them, and then called me.
    I was with her when she bought her car, so she wanted to ask me if I remembered when the warranty was up.
    I’m just glad she called me and didn’t buy ointo their scheme.

    Look closely at the other side or where you've blacked it out, there will be contact info or fine print indicating who it really is and I'd venture it's not Toyota. I get them on my 21 year old truck LOL

    i dunno if it's entirely a scam. just overpriced paper trading. they do exist, they're not taking your money for nothing--they do offer some sort of warranty coverage. but that coverage is minimal at best.
