help - winning p[hone call shortlisted last 100 for an audi?

from eurochance

http://eurochance100.co.uk/cgi-bin/user.pl?93498jdjhk

they phoned me to say i had been selected for the final draw from 100 people to win an audi or 500,000.

this must be a scam musn't it?

They asked me if i wanted to be part of a euromillions lottery thing, and i said no and they didn't push it at all, just said the final drawing would take place in the next month.

My search is playing up so can't find the original comp ion here at hte mo, but in my experience comps don't have 'rounds' that you move forward in, you either win or you don't.

what does anyone else think? do you know about this site? did you get a phone call too?

Not got high hopes on this one :)

    Did you enter a comp on a train station to win the car ? I did (in glasgow)according to them (but I dont remember doing it)and recieved the same phone call about 3 months ago. Said no to euromillions and have heard nothing since. Girl was really pleasant on the phone.
    Fingers crossed for you if it is genuine xxx

    I had the same call a few months back. I just told them I wasn't interested.

    this is doing the rounds again, I am sure it's via quidco cash back one of the clicks where you get money for entering your details can't remember which one but if we all have a link with quidco that's where it's from I would guess

    I tend to tell people who ring up like this not to bother to tell me that ive got through to the last 100 or whatever, just ring me when Ive won!! I got a call like this from one of the electric/gas companies saying I was in the last 100 for a years free electric/gas.
