Rule of Thumb........... To good to be true it's usually FALSE
These types of emails go into my spam file.

However, sadly there are some who will reply to these scams.

True, these kinds of emails seem too good to be true, BUT they are using a well known company name, so its a little more realistic. AND Samsung does do a lot of large promotions, but we don't spam people through email.. you actually have to sign up for it on our website.

But if you forget, or think you have signed up for one of our promotions, then you could easly be scammed by this *****

But as a procaution, ALWAYS talk to the company first!

I don't have time today, but I'll look into this more tomorrow, to see how we do our promotions, etc...

My partner is or has already written an FAQ on this, so I'll have to read that tomorrow as well... I wish we learned of this sooner, so I could have a better post. As this is gonna be all over the place. But atleast I can let people know there is bogus promotion about our company, so people can be warry until I get ALL the info.

I'm off & heading home.

The thing is that as long as there are thousands of people falling for those scams, those scammers ARE making a living and probably making more than a regular joe type job also. Sad but true.

I have found one clue is that if the email is for real, the company addresses you by your name, not just "customer" or some other general thing.

And if you didn't buy a ticket - you didn't win no lottery!
