I had a similar situation last year with XFM. I had a call from them saying I was one of three possible winners, and to stay by the phone for the next half an hour in case they picked me. I also thought the same as you, that it was just something they said to make sure I'd answer the phone when they called back!!! (I won that comp btw!)
Good luck OP, hope it's you!0
