solved, thanks all
[STRIKE]Hi xxxxx [full name],
Good morning. I should send you the prize won in the contest in object but I miss the address line:
[then it lists my name and part of my address]
Could you provide me with the street and street number?
Cheers,
Michele
taken off address details as requested
looks spammy to me [why would they not have my full address if i had entered a comp, and dont think i entered a comp based in NL], just wanted to ask for other opinions?[/STRIKE]

There's no Thank you from you though so it's hard to tell if you entered this one or not?0 -
Looks like a genuine Fb page and comp.. I'd say it's a win.. well done0

I think it looks legit0

i didnt enter that one, but thanks for finding the link
ooh i have liked their FB page though ...
i will reply then and see what its all about.
i was thinking it sounded spammy cos of them only having part of my address - how would they have got part of it? and the english isnt great [mind you, nor is mine so i shouldnt judge! lol]0 -
Just make sure the reply address is the one in the footer of the email.
They do mobile bluetooth headsets so it's maybe something like that, so perhaps not the comp posted above but something from somewhere else.0 -
Looks genuine to me, WAG
WAG and SleepyJones - I think I'd probably take Michele's address off the open forum, in case it is genuine, don't want the poor woman to be inundated with spam...0
