Facebook S(c)pammers
Just got a friend request from "Pets Love Scruffs" on facebook. Obviously this isn't really them, as they're a page not a person ... so if you do get any friend requests, especially over the advents (and especially from Pets Love Scruffs) then it's not really them, and they'll no doubt PM you at some point telling you won…

Is this a scam or did I win a new phone from Absolute Radio?
Hi all. Received this email today. (Have blacked out my name at the start.) Has anyone won a Bauer competition like this before? Did the email you got look like this? Why would they need so much ID? It's also formatted weirdly (with the thing I've 'supposedly' won being in a slightly different font)? They've also put…

Hi It's been years since I entered comps here at MSE but back then I seem to recall searching and sorting by last date or something. I've tried entering in the search bar tomorrows date, for example E: 23/11 but it pulls back lots of other posts other than those ending tomorrow. Is there a better way of searching/sorting…

Searching for comps
I have tried Mislaids link, not working for me. When I search for a comp on the desktop there is a search button. On my Amazon fire I cannot find anything I search for.

Scammer posing as competition prize giver - appliances direct
Not sure if this is the right place but wanted to warn people. I had a comment from a fake Facebook profile claiming I had won a competition and to visit a tiny url link to register and claim my prize which I'm not clicking to find out where it goes. I've reported the fake page and hopefully it gets removed before anyone…

First Radio call, what can I expect?

I have been on here since September and not won anything, usually go for tech, bluray, vegan stuff, gaming and money prizes. Would go for holidays but don't fancy going places alone. Anyway I got a call earlier…

Raffle competition
There is a raffle competition to win a £500,000 house, featured in Lancashire Life magazine. Tickets are £2 and there doesn't seem to be a free entry route.

Where are all the advents?
Is it just me or are there nowhere near as many as usual? Maybe I'm misremembering but I'm sure I usually have more than this bookmarked by now with only a week to go...I was expecting this year to be quieter than usual but this seems especially ominous to me!

Winning Moments - any winners/advice?
Sorry if this has already been covered, but can't find it...or perhaps advise how or where to look. I'l delete once I get anywhere! Just wondering if anyone has ever won anything with these "multiple entry" comps and presumably that means entering more than once a day (which means the likelihood of success would be slim…

Instagram Blocking Comments
Hello Ive recently started entering Instagram competitions however the past few days they keep stopping my comments on posts as they think it could be spam. I am then blocked for 48 hours on commenting, has anyone had this happen to them? There’s no customer service phone numbers to ring just to ask or find out why. I have…

Has Bella Magazine 46 been posted, please?
As title really. I've looked all through comps ending tomorrow and Tuesday, and used the ridiculous search function, remembering to exclude comps more than 10 years old, but no sign... Has it simply not been posted? Or wasn't / isn't there one? Thanks

Anti spam measures that may temporarily affect compers
Please read the pink banner at the top of the page. The forum has been flooded by some extremely determined spammers in the last couple of days. An unfortunate side effect of increasing the sensitivity of the spam filters is that high speed comp posters may be warned that they are posting too quickly. If it happens to you,…
