Any one know anything about this site !!!!!!!!!!!!!!.com? I keep getting emails from Sophie detailing competitions I can enter and free stuff I can get. A scam maybe?

The url is blocked on here so yes, I'm guessing it's a scam or a site that's known to result in a lot of spam. Here is a thread about competition scams.
Here is some information about sites that are likely to generate spam:
"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.

I get emails from Sophie at !!!!!!!!!!!!!!. So its about freebies and some competitions.

I did signed up to their newsletter. You should be able to unsubscribe if you don't want them.

One-Eye

"Magic Freebies" and "Free Stuff World" are related sites whose URL's are banned on MSE and get replaced by !!!! if you try and post them - so they don't get posted now, although they used to be. Each site runs a free comp every week on a Wednesday and I am sure loads of people on here enter these comps (and some have won). There is Spam potential, but if you only enter these weekly comps and remember to untick the boxes at the bottom then I am sure you will be OK.

I've used magic freebies & apart from their daily email get nothing else from them - I always remove the ticks from their comps though - maybe that's why I've never won from them

Received an email (congratulations: You are a winner!) email from Offerx.


Deleted it unopened - guess it's a load of bull.

Have you looked on their winners list to see if you are there?
