Hmm, suspicious

Company on facebook were running a comp, had to post a comment with an answer to their question, the one who got the most likes was due to win.
They revealed two winners. I was scrolling down the page because I couldn't remember why I had originally liked it and was looking for the original competition! I found competition #1, and the same two people won that too!
Seems very unfair to me, that they get to win twice? I was a bit suspicious and then checked the likes on the latest comp - they only had 4 likes each - 2 were from each other (aka they had liked their own post, and the other winners) and 2 were from private accounts with no profile picture or anything. Looks a bit suspect to me!
The first competition, their only likes were their own!
Kind of want to post something on their status or wall, but feel like I'll just look like a sore loser!
Anyway. Just wondering if this seemed suspicious to anyone else.
Don't know if these two people are just taking advantage of the fact that the competitions have quite a small amount of entries or whether the company are just making fake winners. (But if it was the former you'd think the company would notice!)

Seems very suspect, it wouldn't be the first time that Companies had tried this.Luck is believing you’re lucky – Tennessee Williams
