£250 Grocery Card Email

Has anyone had an email telling them that they have 'won' a £250 grocery card. As a DFW, the temptation is great, but to 'claim' it, I would have to 'click here to validate email address', so it seems very dodgy to me! Any experience anyone?

    Which supermarket is it claiming to be from (if any?) Might be an idea to ring and report it if it is.

    i've seen that, I think I got it as $250 rather than £250. Pretty sure it was supposed to be from Tesco (but obviously not!)
