So excited about my win!!

Just got back from holiday to an email that I'd won the daily prize draw of $300 from GlobalTestMarket. Thought it was a phishing scam at first as they wanted all my details. I emailed them and they've just confirmed that it is correct. I'm a very happy bunny:beer::j

    I'm always very cynical about these sort of things, but if what you say is correct then, well done and there's hope for the rest of us.

    I was too which is why I emailed them direct & this is the reply:-

    OK got a while to wait, but think this will probably be spent on our new grandchild due end November:j
  • lol

    are 'checks' not spelt 'Cheques' (or is this the americanised speeling)
    So you are registered to this organisation 'GMI International Survey Sweepstakes'
  • It sounds genuine - anyone who does surveys for Global Test Market (as do I) will know that whenever you get screened out they will enter you in this prize drawing and $300 is definitely one of the prizes. Well done!! :j:beer: Hope I win one day - glad to hear people do!! :T

  • Nice to hear of someone actually winning one of the draws, congratulations! Have been doing GTM surveys for a while now and the money's nice enough but have always been a bit suspicious of the draws being genuine.
