118 radio promotion with cash prize

Hello,

I have just come home to find a message on my answering machine from someone saying they are from 118 customor service. She gave me a reference number and a 0800 telephone no. to ring between 9-5 Mon to Friday and said I had won £118 as a result of a 118 118 enquiry I made recently. Apparently this is part of a local and national radion promotion on at the moment.

I rang the number and it sounded OK - although now outside of office hours.

I have not heard about this promotion and can't find anything through a google search. Has anyone heard of this? Is it kosher do you think?

Thanks,

Victoria
