got letter today
says i have one one of 5 prizes.
obviously need to ring premium line.
hoewever i read a bit of the small print and i can also send a sae to them to get my winners number.
the question is;
is worth the sae or is it still a scam (i am guessing i win voucher for a cruise which i will still have to pay hundreds for)
i feel it might be worth a try or maybe all these things are just scams and should be avoided.
thanks for any help

I suspect they go in the same place as their letter to you should.I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.0

I had received something like that before, and I do have to say, personally I don't think it's even worth the stamp you put on the SAE.
Few years ago, purely out of curiosity, I sent an SAE to this sort of promotion to see what kind of stuff those companies could afford to "give away" so easily. In return, I got a 3 day coach trip to Paris voucher - for one person. Any person wants to join you on this trip have to purchase the tour from them and pay "normal" price - goodness know how much it's going to cost!
The whole thing is just a waste of time. Bin the letter!0
