Patner offer from Fool.co.uk

Has anyone just received an email from Fool discussing using the tax allowance via a Friendly Society (£25)?

It even offers a gift voucher from M&S!!

I thought fool were smarter than that than to get involved with a scheme of this sort but I suppose they are getting revenue for sending the email out.
