    Thanks Claire. I have unfollowed. It was me that posted the comp, so apologies to anyone that has wasted their time in entering. I posted it in good faith.

    it's kinda ironic that a "social media" company was stupid enough not to check the posts of the employees they picked to win.

    There's comments on their tw posts from others to say the winners had protected accounts (not sure what that means) but guessing it means something to do with the retweets ?

    If your twitter account is protected, it means that other people cannot read your tweets, unless you follow them and you cannot follow them without their consent.

    You don't need to apologise marg2k8. That comp was one of the first ones I ever entered and it seemed so genuine. I'm certainly going to unfollow them. Just makes you think now if some comps are too good to be true.

    I'd say it was more like the owner than an employee (if they have any)
