Hi,

I received this email the other day but a bit wary as it is asking for me to email my bank account details .... any one else had similar from them?

Dear Karen,

 

Good Moos! You have won £100 in the Test Your Knowledge competition as featured in Real People Issue 44, 2021 - how udderly fabulous is that!

 

If ANY personal details are incorrect could you please email *****.****@hearst.co.uk with any changes immediately to avoid any delay in receiving your prize.

 

Our office is still closed at the moment because of the pandemic, so we can’t send cheques. We can, however, pay directly into your bank account. If this method is suitable for you, please email me your sort code and bank account number. We aim to pay within 10 weeks.

 

Congratulations once again and we hope you continue to enjoy Real People!

 

Kind regards

Congratulations, looks a lot like the one I received. 
I won a £100 Love2Shop card in September and they asked if I would prefer a bank transfer instead as it would be quicker which I agreed to However I am still waiting for this, apparently I'm in the system waiting to be approved. So just be prepared for a wait!
