Hi,

Has anyone received a letter from this company offering the channce to claim a cash prize by calling an 0906 premium number?

The website has no info on it at all.

The letter says that 'my awards are guaranteed to be at least £1000'

there are four 'cheques' attached with sums of money between £20k and £75k, there is a different number to call to claim each amount.

Has anyone got any thoughts about this or similar schemes (scams?)

Regards,

Dogberry (baby money saver)

    Total scam. Your 'gift/award' will be a book of vouchers for discounts on vastly over-priced items which you would never, ever purchase in the first place.

    Eg 500 off a holiday (holiday 'costs' 6k, and you can buy it elsewhere for 750!).
    The latest is 'vouchers' to spend in a specific catalogue - 'all you pay is the post and packing' - surprise, surprise the stuff is cheap tatt, and the P&P is more than the cost of the item.

    Avoid them all!!!!

    Ask yourself - why would someone be giving me money for nothing???

    I got my second lot of cheques from these people today. I filed them straight in the shredder.
