Hi,Spry

Thanks for the comp but it is owned by LBM Marketing.Personally I doubt that the prize exists & the comp is just a data gathering tool.

11 Are there any sites, from experience, which are likely to generate lots of spam?
There are a few which have come to our collective attention as sites that, when used for comps, seem to generate lots of unwanted postal, email & phone call attention. These are listed below for your information, however, please do remember that this is only the collective opinion of other MSE Compers & does not necessarily reflect upon the sites themselves.

Worryingly that is the first time I've read that post about the ones that generate a lot of Spam, am quite glad to have seen it now.
Has anyone on this site ever won anything on the myoffers one? As I wasted a lot comping time entering them
Any response is deeply appreciated.

Hi,Jakey.Pato

In my view they are a waste of time & you'll get loads of spam.There are thousands of legit comps on here so I'd just stick with those.

I've entrered nearly 1500 comps on my offers and never won anything, has anyone ever won ont this or am I wasting my time?

I'd put money on the fact that there are no winners on here :-)
