Photoshoot competition?

Question

i received a call today for a competition that i entered (which i remember entering) they said that i won a makeover and photoshoot. chuffed to bits only problem is they wanted £30 per ticket which is refundable on the day. is this genuine as im not comfortable with giving my card details out?

Answer 1

yeah i agree with the answer above. is there any other way you can pay? through paypal for example. if you pay through paypal they shouldnt be able to get your card details. it sounds like a scam to me, but if you remember entering the competition and if it was through a reputable website, magazine or whatever it should be genuine. just sounds a bit fishy to me. good luck, hope its genuine : )

Answer 2

If you won it why would they want £30 per ticket?

And if they were going to give you it back why would they want it in the first place?

Don't give your card details - I wouldn't.

Is a free makeover worth the hassle of maybe having your identity stolen?

Think about it.
