    I have these emails a lot, I usually just delete them though!!! They usually come from random senders who send me lots of junk email so I've never believed I've actually won anything from them.
    Best win ever - My wedding!!

    2011 wins so far - 2 tickets for Cardiff City home game, Get Squiggling DVD, Now 78 Party Pack, Book, Megamind DVD, In the Night Garden tour family ticket, Wonders of the Universe DVD :)

    Hi there Laurens mummy.
    My name is Mel and I run the Phones 4u Social sites, Facebook, Twitter and The uBar.
    Just thought you would like to know that The uBar surveys we send out are not a scam, each survey has a prize draw that you are entered in to win after taking part in the survey.
    We give away an assortment of prizes from mobile phones to shopping vouchers and games consoles in return for your thoughts in our surveys.
    You can check out The uBar panel here www.theubar.co.uk

    I can't comment on other prize giveaways but ours are definately not a scam.

    I hope that helps.

    Kind regards
    Mel.
