in I won! I won! I won!
I've just received a WEM for a competition I entered for head lice stuff but as I scrolled down I noticed that it has the original entry of someone else contained in it WITH all their personal details :eek::eek::eek:.

I've emailed them back to tell them. I'm just hoping that it hasn't been sent to everyone who entered :eek:

    Yeah so do I!!

    I emailed them back straight away so hopefully it was only sent to me. Obviously I couldn't care less about the prize but the thought of someones details being emailed to thousands of people fills me with horror!
    Actually, thinking about it the email was actually addressed to that particular person so I don't even know how it ended up in my inbox. The address is totally different.

    It's really bizarre isn't it?
    My email address isn't even anywhere on the email. It looks like one of those dodgy emails I often get from abroad but this was definitely a comp I entered because I can remember it.
    It's terrible for the other person, I only hope it was just sent to me.

    They've just emailed me back actually telling me to ignore the email on the bottom. Apparently that's just the way their system works. Which is fine but what if I was some dodgy criminal or something? Luckily it would seem that it has only been sent to me.

    It was this comp here actually-

    EDIT: So to clarify, It IS my win but it has someone else's details on :think::think::think:

    I think they need to sort their system out! Not sure I'd be too chuffed if my details were emailed to some random person :confused:

    Oh well...
