  • I see there's lots of comments under the pic of the 'winners'. Just wanted to point out post #7 on this thread - that the comp was also in a magazine so the winners may not be on FB.

    However, I agree - fix!
    Biggest win: £10,000 from Pepsi
    Favourite win: Handmade jewellery worth £1000

    I can't see the winner's pic, am I having a senior moment or has it been removed?

    I received this email from the IPM timed at 5.13pm confirming that they will investigate. I did enclose a copy of the winners photo but relied upon the comments on facebook!

    "John,
    i have had other complaints abou this, and we will investigate.

    Kind regards, Edwin

    That was on their comms page - also i reported them to the local newspaper, they also have a twitter advertising it and the winner...

    But yes theyve removed everything about the competition suddenly
    (and now hidden comments boxes-seems like they are admitting guilt) (i think there were loads of people who were going to phone them/report them etc...
    Its very bad (i didnt enter the comp myself but hate to see this kind of scam, when over 1200 people advertised the comp and shared the word for them of the off chance of winning a prize)..
