    Personally I doubt that the prize even exists melandtony

    Mind you I bet if I look at this in a few days it will have 300+ thanks alongside :-)
  • Looks pretty dodge to me as well I'm not bothering

    I agree - the website only has one page... Very dodgy, you'd expect a site called competition king to have more than one comp running!

    Not your fault at all.We all make our choices & MSE members usually post if comps are not what they seem.
    It's just my view but do not take the endorsement of other comping sites as validation though.They are often paid to post from sites like these but MSE gets no "kickback".
    There are lots of sites like the above out there.
  • I have entered before seeing these other posts, would it not be better to remove or put in bolder letters a warning, bit concerned now as Ive put my details in:(

    Its more than likely just getting details to spam entrants which is bad enough but in my view the site matches others where the existence of a prize is doubtful.I do not worry about spam too much.My record is 43,00 unopened items in my comping email inbox:rotfl:
