Have a look at this (let me know if the link doesn't work) http://astrocat.proboards15.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=1092864073
Googling for them doesn't give any constructive results (not in the first few pages anyway), just the query raised in that link.
I think the old adage if it seems too good to be true then it probably is.0 -

apparently (dont know if the law has changed) you can ask the post office and they are oblidged to tell you where a P.O. box is registered to, the actual person who too kthe account out. I'd say find out, round up a couple of heavies and go round to collect it in person :T0

If you go to the post office site and input the post code, that P O Box comes up as registered to Afzaal Hussain!0

Hi, I've used this company for Garlic Capsules which were the 'normal' price when on special offer.
The Money you have won is explained in the T&C and at best would be a share in some cash.
An * on my latest Mailing states 'IF you have the winning number ...
and then the wording states you have definatly won, It's official - etc etc etc...
so yes it's a missleading mailshot - but The company do exist and sell health suppliments.

I received the same statement of a £10,000 award providing I placed an order which I did. Then I got another letter saying I had definitely won £10,000 and to make sure I got it I would have to place another order otherwise they could not guarantee it would be opened in time. Furthermore on their declaration they said I had to acknowledge that there was no guarantee I would win anyway. A very cheap scam with products that are a lot cheaper in the shops. Also why don't they have a telephone number or proper address. I suggest this is coming from someones living room with a good printer and p.c.0

Ian you should not be using your e-mail address as your user name. You are opening yourself up to all sorts of potential spamming problems.0

just received another letter saying the money £10,000 was mine and all I had to do was make sure I affixed the special label to the return form which must be returned within 3 days or prize forfeited. Guess what? there was no label to peel off already removed hmmmm. These people should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law it is outright fraud damn them.0

you are not the only £10,000 winner. I know someone who has been told several time that money will be ready in 4 days and they are still waiting.
Write letter to geographical address for PObox 1075 is 66 Newnham Avenue, Bedford MK41 9PT and ask!0 -
Just do what I do return it stating you will sign a consented permission to deduct the requested amount fromn your winnings and send it back inserting the words FREEPOST in the address.
Otherwise take the prepaid envelope and post it back empty!
Get even!
