    It turned out to be a FAKE comp.. the User who offered the IPAD has since had their account closed (again), leaving the young lady to pick up the mess!

    She said her sister picked the winner (who just happened to have her sister as a friend).. this is why she was getting hassle.

    As for people picking on her, many on MSE defended her and gave the original poster (paparazziUK) a load of hassle. But again its seems that people are making stories up about users..
