'The £1 Million cash card' - Anyone played it lately?

Whatever method you think of using to claim your supposed winnings, don't expect the money to actually turn up. Mine didn't.

Not a penny. Not even an answer when I complained. It would have been some feeble lie, no doubt, but it's always nice not to be absolutely ignored, even by rogues.

So if you are daft enough to use the scamster's high-priced phone system, don't imagine that, at worst, your ten quid "award" will at least cover your phone costs. It won't, because you won't get it.

Fraudsters make their money from the gullibility of innocents. Don't be fooled. Why this mob are allowed to continue their scam is beyond me.

A four x scratch card from Purely Creative appeared with my monthly Sky Magazine. Two cards scratched revealed we had won both the cash payout and one of the big prizes.
My wife sent a text to their number to see what happens, and promptly received 4 of 6 text back messages costing £1.50 each (only four before her credit ran out) with lots of blurb but no details of any prizes.
Usual policy applies - it is too good to be true so don't make contact with them. It will cost you at least £9 to make contact and then your number is on their harrasment list.:rolleyes:

I have to say I always send in the mail for the claim number for the cash award cards (it's in the small print on the back of the cards that you can do this).

I've won £10 every time, but for the cost of 3 2nd class stamps that's still over £9 profit for minimal effort. I probably get 6 or 7 of these a year so that's over £50 a year for scratching a few cards and posting a few envelopes....easy money!

I was thinking the same thing myself !
Found these scratchcards (purely creative ) in a magazine, and guess what ?
Two Identical symbols on one card, and THREE on the other !
While it brackets the THREE identical symbols with the big money prizes, it does'nt actually say the card is a winner.
It does however say that it will cost me £9 to register my claim ! (6Mins phone call @ £1.50 per minute )
Their website is full of allegedly Happy members of the public who have won prizes, but like you, I would like to hear from one or more of them.

I got 3 apples, which is £10 award (I called to find that out - it will cost me about £10, the call that is). At the same time I got two bikes, which is Spanish holiday return travel plus 3 nights accomodation.

Naturally, I am very reluctant to send all my details to "some company" +stamps, etc... to claim the awards - I do not believe in free lunches. Besides, someone in this Forum had the same combinaions - we might be going on the same holiday - joke.

I wonder, how all those people make money? Only through the phone lines? Stamps? Are the phone companies involved?

Me Too......but I like to turn the tables and get hold of a few of these cards and complete them in the names of my husband and kids also and apply for a claim number through the post for each. I use my works', sisters', and mums' addresses to send the claim number and prizes to as "only one claim per household"
So that's £40 less stamps each promo. Thanks Purely Creative!!!
