I am writing to bring readers awareness of a ongoing competition scam that is extortionately expensive to partake in, the puzzles sent by post.
While the puzzles (a varied word search) are fairly easy, unless one reads the small print, the costs to phone in your answers are as much as £13.80. This does not enter your answers to see if you have won a prize but merely gets you sent another similar puzzle, where again the cost of submitting the answers is £13.80 and so it continues.
It appears the ongoing entries are just a reason to extort more money from entrants rather than an entry into a competition to win £17,777.
I can find no evidence or proof of previous winners.
