Is this a win?

Hi Guys,

I got an email saying, "Congratulations, you've been selected to receive an advanced copy of the life-changing new book, The Tools.
"
It is from Ebury Publishing/Random House. I had to click to confirm my address - my details were already there when I clicked.

I've searched and can't find this listed here, so I'm not sure if this is a win, a freebie, or :eek: a hot spam flavoured potato.

Whadya think team? Thanks in advance :)

    I'd be concerned that it doesn't say 'free copy'

    but saying that... it could be a win

    so in all... I'm unsure :rotfl:

    Thanks Kate, I should add:

    "To receive your FREE copy of The Tools book please validate your postal address by clicking the link below and we'll post your copy to you by the 28th May"

    Yet, for some reason my scam alarm is tinkling a little. I have clicked to agree, because the book sounds like my cuppa, so I guess what will be will be. Wonder if anyone else here got the same?
