Have I won?

Just received a reply from a Radio Times wordfinder comp email. It's, quite simply, this:

'Donation To You, Contact Mr.Pedro On [EMAIL="pedro_Q1@rogers.com"]pedro_Q1@rogers.com[/EMAIL] for more info'

Suspect it's spam.

    That's what I thought, but how did they get hold of the address?Because it's linking back to the original email entry.

    I agree it reads like spam. A bit worrying if it's linked to your comp entry though. Perhaps forward it to RT? Be good to let them know if this is happening in their name.

    If it were official then it wouldn't use an e-mail address like that.

    Definitely let Radio Times know.

    Almost definitely some sort of spam or scam - there are 2 @Rogers.com on this page http://www.scamdex.com/ScamTipReports/lotto
    I'd agree with let RT know!
