Wooo runner up prize

http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=248443&highlight=Simon+Butler

I've won £100 off a portrait, shame they're over £200 each, but I'm tempted, it would make a great Christmas present.

First ever win, even though it's a runner up prize.
Insert witty signature here!

    Hi Alastair, I also got that email.

    I di wonder if it was a scam email where everyone "wins", but it says that there are 10 runner up prizes.

    I won too! Immediately came on here because it is blatantly a scam. Oh well. Suppose it would be a good deal if I wanted an oil painting.
    Most recent wins: IPad, Jamie Magazine yearbook, Links of London friendship bracelet, Baumatic ice cream machine! :j

    Hi all,

    I was also a runner up in this competition so smelling a rat, wonder why they can’t just be honest and say something like: “Sorry but you did not win this competition but we like to offer you a £100 voucher towards a Simon Butler painting.”
    It would be more than coincidence that already 8 out of the 10 £100 winners are on this forum.
    If anybody wants my £100 voucher code let me know.

    Greetings

    Johan
