    I had four HMRC ones since 7:32pm today! I wonder which comp we have all entered as surely it is too much of coincidence to get these kinds of emails at the same time and so many of them too. I've not entered any comps today though.

    I had one a few weeks ago which was almost the same amount of refund that I was actually due! I knew it was fake though as I hadn't given my email address the day before when I'd phoned them. The cheque came the next day and was very nice indeed :)
    But, my situation was a coincidence as I'd phoned them, they really are fake so never answer them :) xx

    I've already deleted mine but if I get any more I'll certainly forward them on to them!!
