Dear Reniannen

Congratulations!

You have been drawn as the winner of £250 for registering your details on the Thomson Local website last week, as part of the Thomson Local Register to Win Promotion.

Communicator are a marketing agency working on behalf of Thomson Local, in case you want to check with then. We will be sending you a cheque for the full amount of £1,000, for which we will need your postal address as it will need to be signed for. For the moment though, could you please email me a contact phone number, or call me on the number below?

The deadline for us receiving your details is within 14 days (therefore by 20.05.09) otherwise you will forfeit the prize.

If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact me on 0207 749 2626. Congratulations once again.

Thanks!

I vaguely remember entering something like this but I can't find it!

Oh my god, I'm only a poor student, having £250 sitting in my bank would be very. very nice right now! Can someone please help put me out my misery and find the post!

Wooh yay, it was from this post by Walwin, thank you! (thanks Cheeky Chicken for finding it!):A

:j:j

(P.S. I'm in a library right now, think the people around me think I;ve gone a bit mad :o:D)

    seems pretty genuine to me, especially as they say they will send you a cheque.
    Asking for yur bank details - now that would have set alarm bells ringing.

    so am i reading it right that they are sending you £250 and £1000.

    Congratulations !!!!
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    yes they contradict themselves now I've got round to reading it straight! Have emailed him back and asked to confirm lol but yeah think the top line is probably right.

    Hope another MSE member got the £1000!

    The top prize is £1000 each week - £250 is a runner up prize, so it's prob £250 and they've sent the same email as they sent to the winner :)
