Ive just got the same email, I did the survey then it asked for name, address, date of birth, credit or debit details and if you wanted to enter the comp you had to fax proof of id. What a scam. It looked right but it sounded all wrong. I NEVER give out card details to anyone, I posted the email on another site and someone noticed a word spelt wrong, which Id missed, scam emails nearly always have bad spelling and grammar, but this was pretty good, it looked very convincing, but giving away £25 for 3 seconds just doesnt sound right, I do a lot of surveys and competitions and have never come across a firm giving so much to every one who enters, I was expecting it to be a draw or free vouchers not £25, but anyway please dont be tempted, if something sounds too good to be true then it usually is and this definately is.
