Hello,
Got a WEM? which advises that I have been awarded a holiday to France worth 600 pounds.
CONFIRMATION: PAID IN FULL TRANSPORT & HOTEL ACCOMMODATION FOR TWO PEOPLE
CLAIM AN EXCLUSIVE FAMILIARISATION HOLIDAY TO ROMANTIC FRANCE
from EV Holidays.
bottom of email states ---To process your application a £20 Administration & Booking fee is required that covers all administration costs related to confirming your booking for travel, plus hotel room accommodation.
Just thought I would post to bring it to people's attention as this does not appear to be a competition prize. Not sure where they got my details from though. Needless to say it is being deleted.
