paintball

Thought i'd got 1st win, but on looking closer says have won a voucher worth £525 for paintball on a day out for upto 35 people. It then goes onto say you pay £10 per person on booking but it will be redeemed in the form of your 1st 100 paintballs, but a days play normally uses about 500. Plus theres a £1 admin fee per person. So looks like the day would cost £51 per person. So doesn't look such a good prize. Is this just another scam to get you there. Has anyone else had a letter from them.:confused: What do you think?:confused: I've put this post on a couple of threads as i'm quite new to forum and still finding my way around, so sorry if in wrong place.

    Hi

    It isn't necessary to make identical posts in several places.
    Just post once and if it's in the wrong place someone will move it to the right place :)

    In the Competition Discussions thread I've put a link to earlier discussion about the paintball vouchers.
  • Thanks for the advice on posts.

    Hi, when I won I sold it on Ebay and the person was pleased as I was up front and put what it included. At least you get something & the prize is not wasted. We all learn about the duff prizes but everyone on here is so helpful to each other. ;)
