Is this for real?
I recieved a letter this morning from Survey uk ,saying ,congratulations ,this number has drawn one of the gifts donated by local business,with a phone number to ring ,and a hand written code to give when I ring .
Do you think this is legit?
Says there are 31 gifts available,total value£32,500
Please ,someone must know if this is alright :D:D

    Are you a member survey uk( never heard of them myself)? Have you ever heard of them before? If not i presume its a scam.

    Is there info about th etelephone number ( call rate) As its proberbley going to cost you a fortune to ring it.

    Why do they need you to ring back with a code if they have already got your name + address and could quite easily give you this prize?? If i were you i would google the telephone number they supplied and see what turns up

    Forgot to add .... it was half price off the "gold membership" so it still would have cost more than the avergage gym membership! and it was a 24month contract. :eek:
