My wife was told she had "won" a S$3,000 (just under US$1,900) shopping spree, which turns out to be at woarewards.com but we (both of us!) have to attend a 2-hr talk where the "sponsor's services" will be introduced to us, and at the end she also stands a chance to win S$10,000 cash or a small car.
I did a google search and have read several complaints that the website, at least, is a 'scam', in that the products aren't anything great, listed at inflated prices when compared with Walmart, and they make money by charging exorbitant shipping and handling charges which exceed the cost at Walmart. But nothing I've read so far talks about a lucky draw at the end of a 2-hr talk (which might be a "local" feature here in Singapore -- also, given the laws here, I am inclined to believe that at least this portion is genuine, only question being just how many people are in the running for the prize, or in other words what are our odds?)
So: anyone on HTF have personal experience with this? As we all know, the net is full of wheat and chaff, and it's difficult to sift through it all, but I am always inclined to give what fellow HTFers have to say added weight
