Do not enter contests or fill up forms for lucky draw. Your information will somehow get into the hands of vacation clubs or some other marketing firms.
I did fill up a contest from from Tesco or Carrefour in Jan or Feb. And I just received a call from a firm, stating that they are not a vacation club, and I won a consolation prize.
They will say you have won a prize (consolation prize) valid for 6 months, and you can choose from one of their many resorts or hotels... blah blah blah... sounds familiar. But you need to come to their office to collect the price, with your spouse and sit through a 30-50 minutes briefing on their products, or whatever...
Not only do we get calls from them stating your handphone number was chosen to win a prize, all to familiar, they are now using contest to get our information. Doh!!! Sigh!!! Learnt my lesson.
Read my earlier blog The things we go thru for a Free Holiday.
Just ignore them, unless you are interested to win free holidays. :-D All the best.
