Seaons holiday

I have just received a letter to say i have won a prize to the value of £3750 in this month's prize draw and to ring a freephone number between 11 and 8 within 7 days of the letter.

i have entered loads of comps lately and am hoping this is a genuine win, but i have a feeling that it is a timeshare win as the letter is signed Leanne Halliday, membership secretary.

the letter also says when i ring i will get a unique password to claim a free 30 page photo book from bonuspirnt!

the more i think about it the more i am convinced it is a scam!

anyone else received the same letter?
Just about to give up!

    Have you googled the number to see what it comes up with? Or maybe found anything on the Bonusprint site to link it to it?

    Expect to see a reply on this thread from someone who says they once won this prize and for what they paid out it was well worth it.

    Like everyone says it is a scam

    I was gutted to find out this was a scam after i won this not long after I started comping from this site - the guys on here gave me the low down and I steered clear - unfortunately my friend was in the same position a few months later and I enlightened her too.
    Keep you chin up though, a win is always around the corner! x
