Hi
Anyone who has entered the '2 minute draw' competiton .. I have had loads of calls from them today! Claiming I have won first prize of a holiday and £50 free vouchers and I have to call a freephone number.
Oh and suprise suprise my friend got exactly the same call!!
:eek: No chance im doing that, Im to clued up after being on here to much :rotfl:
So please dont sign up to this offer from any cashback or reward sites etc!0 -
Had a letter this morning from O.R.P.B.General Management stating I had won indisputable!! £47,600.00
As long as I follow the two administration clauses???
The small print is so small I cannot read it with two pairs of glasses on.
but I must send £20 for my Millionaires Guarantee.
And I must not 'reveal the origin of this secret method.'
So I am off to spend some of my winnings.Be ALERT - The world needs more LERTS0 -
hate to burst your bubble but that sounds very much like a con to me.
any comps that ask you for money first should always be given a wide berth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:j :T :j :T :j :T :j :T :j

Absolutely right skim. If they can't then it obviously don't exist!“We are not interested in the fact that the brain has the consistency of cold porridge.” - Alan Turing (1912-1954)0
