I just finished entering several sweepstakes with links found at this forum: http://www.fatwallet.com/forums/categories.cfm?catid=45 and wondered who wins these things? I'm sure I just raised my spam factor times 10 but what the heck?
I entered an online sweepstakes trying to win a DirecTV set-up including a television and surround sound, etc. And I won....... one of the lesser prizes, which was a soundtrack from the movie The Cable Guy
About a year and a half ago I entered one of those Microsoft computer giveaways they have on their site. Well, I forgot about it for a few months and finally decided to check the e-mail I gave, presuming that I would get A LOT of **** mail. Well, lo and behold there's an e-mail from a Microsoft Marketing Director or something saying I was a prize winner and I needed to e-mail them in time to claim it (this wasn't an ad; it was the real deal). Well I missed the deadline by one day. I still e-mailed the guy asking what it was that I should have received.... 2 GHz full loaded XP comp.
Yeah. I supposedly won some drawing for like 60,000,000 US dollars..but you have to call these people somewhere in Africa..Nigeria I think. Everything is spam!
That's a definite scam, not just spam.http://www.benjamindover.com It's somewhere on that site. Whatever happened to "I Won dot com?" iwon.com??
