Strange emiail? Anyone else get the same?

Ive got a strange one for you's!!

I had a phone call today but my phone was on silent so I didnt answere it and then I received the following email:

"Thank you very much for your interest in i-to-i Meaningful Travel and for entering our prize draw. I tried to call you today and I welcome the opportunity to be able to contact you to discuss your travel plans and see if I may help you in any way regarding ideas for voluntering and TEFL courses."

So its from a comp I enetered on here but I cant find it anywhere and Im not sure but I think its not a win?

Any ideas?

    Yep it's a marketing call. The lady who phoned me was pleasant and not pushy at all. She said she new I'd gone onto the site to enter a competition but wondered if I was interested in a trip... as it happens I am but my circumstances to not allow at the moment which I was able to explain to her.

    So it's just sales... sorry!
    Life is all about the journey.
  • no theyre really nice i was looking at trips for my daughters gap year and the guy was lovely and emailed me loads of suggestions
