    I have recieved an email off skiddle. Does not show any other email addresses though.

    EDIT: Have just read Pot 'o' gold (sorry if i posted your username wrong!) I also have had a phone call off mychild. Infact it woke me up ! I just ended up putting the phone down on them and turned my phone off for a minute. Hopefully they wont call back :D.

    Scam I'm afraid


    Shred it and forget about it, no reputable comp would charge you an "admin" fee to process your win.


    Can you imagine if the National Lottery charged you if you won a million quid... it just wouldn't happen

    Not had this one myself, but a quick Google of 'Hamilton Moore & Associates' suggests it is definitely a scam, eg

    Just trying to unsubscribe and noticed this on the SKiddle site:

    We never share your info with other people. We will not show your address or full name to other users.

    They will, however, share your email address with anyone they choose :eek:

    My reply was short and not so sweet.
    I am already up to date and not very happy with that the users of your site now have access to my private email address.
    Regards

    It doesn't matter to me, they should be careful handling peoples details - like the government is :rotfl:
  • Hi, Perhaps I can't see the wood for the trees but there doesn't appear to be any way I can filter competitions by category, or at least 'email'.
    Am I missing something or isn't this available on this website?
