    Hi,as per your earlier post .........

    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.
    Domain name:
    ukprize.co.uk

    Registrant:
    LBM Direct Marketing Ltd

    http://whois.domaintools.com/ukprize.co.uk
    I see it as spam .
    link changes to : http://www.ukprize.co.uk/Competitions/300/new-york-break-competition.html?t=wow-NYC
    We've done pretty well over the years & these type of comps do not appear very often.
    Just curious as to why you are so motivated to post these ,with changing links,when there are so many other legit' sites to post from.

    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.
