Phone Call from “PCE” [MERGED]

Has anyone received a phone call from a group called PCE(Property Council Education)? They were looking for unhappy Marriott Owners. It sounds like a class action lawsuit, but now I wonder if it is one of those timeshare exit scams.

Brian - all the threads open when I click on them. Is that what unfurl means?
 
sorry, the links all work. unfurl is the little box/description feature that shows a bit of a preview instead of just the link text!

I wonder if there is a max length to a URL in order to unfurl? Perhaps 100 characters? First one is 149 characters. Last is 97. I turned the first one into a Bitly above and it unfurls.
 
its a head scratcher for sure, even xenforo support seems stumped.

what i dont get is that they all unfurl fine if posted in the own separate threads, its only when they are combined in a single thread that some dont unfurl.

heres the longest one number 5 just pasted on its own...no issues unfurling!

I see now in my post that the first one (same as you just posted) is now unfurled. It wasn't before. It is also unfurled as #5 in the first post. Odd. Perhaps once unfurled always unfurled?
 
ive been going back and trying to edit the first post to see if i can trigger something to change by removing spaces/numbers/etc.... looks like it shows 3 of 5 now!

so weird...none of the changes I made resulted in that 3rd one showing up immediately...i didnt notice it unfurled till you said something.
 
ha! if i post one of them in its own post...it unfurls the first post.
