    My OH has had email today advising she has won from one of them. They haven't said what prize or which mag/paper though, but likely to be a gift card looking at the recent closing dates :-)

    She has emailed them back with our address and they confirmed it was a £100 Amazon gift voucher

    Did the emails come from a company called Prizeshark please? I got a WEM today but wasn't sure if it was spam trying to get my address?
    Thank you

    Yes, the e-mail was from a company called Prizeshark. A quick Google shows that are an agency that runs competitions.
