Email from Optimisemedia. Is this a scam?

lr1277

I used moneysupermarket to find and buy my car insurance with LV. Today I received an email from optimisemedia offering me an Amazon gift e-voucher, saying it was from LV, thanking me for buying their insurance through moneysupermarket.
Is this email a scam which I should ignore?
TIA

Do you mean moneysavingexpert, ie this site? If so, there is indeed an Amazon voucher available with LV which would seem to be handled by optimisemedia.

Some more info here:=

No. I meant moneysupermarket. I have just been back through my email and logged onto the moneysupermarket site to check and I believe it is the most likely candidate for my insurance purchase. I hadn't seen the link at the time I purchased my insurance.

Same thing really - MSE is owned by Moneysupermarket.

Thanks for the reply Davidmcn. I had forgotten about the link between the two. I suppose I didn't apply though the moneysavingexpert site, so am a little concerned about inputting my details into an unknown site. Hmm will ponder some more, or if I can be bothered, I will call LV.

I purchased my car insurance through moneysupermarket at the beginning of March.  I saw the offer of a voucher on MSE and clicked through from here.  I had an email today from moneysupermarket thanking me for buying my car insurance through them but no mention of the voucher and I have forgotten the details of the offer now.  Does anyone have them please.
