Hi guys.
I received the following email this afternoon from the World Duty Free competition running over on Facebook:
We apologise if you have received an email today confirming you are a winner of one of the windows in our Advent Calendar.
This email has been sent out in error and we apologise for any inconvenience caused. As per our terms and conditions on the competition, the draw will be independently supervised and will take place within 1 week of closing date and the winners will be notified by 5 January, 2012.
Has anyone else received this email? Strangely, I didn't receive a congratulatory email from them so it may be an email genuinely sent out to everyone who has entered in error.

The emails were sent out in error apparently as the draw won't take place until 5th January. Fortunately I wasn't one to receive the winning email, but I feel sorry for those who did.Thank you so much to everyone who post & help with comps! :j
