Hi, I just received a call from Elizabeth. O87 165 5443. Said that the draw will take place at Monateng Safari Lodge in Pretoria on Saterday 11hoo. Ref nr. J***. Is this a scam or not? Must I go? Also the Lunch thing was mentioned. I’m in Witbank and it’s not far. But my husband said that he’ll moer someone if it’s a scam…!!!

I received the same call but her name was Belinda. i knew that i never enter competitions so i didnt really listen to her in the beginning but she started sounding very serious. she lost me again when she insisted i come with my boyfriend and asked for his number. she said that competition had been running through shoprite (weird coz i dont shop there). so today i decided that before i waste my time and go to midrand let me google their number(087 805 2350) and came across this page. im still waiting for her to call me and give me the address in midrand.im gonna give her a piece of my mind.oh and their prize has been changed to a Cherry instead of a spark.

Ok Ive just joined the club!!! I am such a sucker for these things because I always enter competitions so I usualy cant remember when where etc. I am learning though and am very greatfull that you guys have this page up else I might just have convinced my poor hubby (Who I might add asked me 100 x are you sure its not a scam????) to go all the way there!!!
So from hubby and I Thank you!! How do I list it as a scam on Carte Blanche? I guess I just go onto their website>>>

I also heard about this from my office colleague, same scam from the tracy woman. He googled the company and wow, this is what he found.

@ R.
Good idea indeed.. I will submit this story on their website as well.

Ironically, I received a call last week, the woman on the other side of the phone said “I’m calling in connection with a SMS competition you entered…….” I paused her in mid sentence and asked if she was from world connect. She put the phone down on me, no big surprise. The big surpirse really is that they are not even keeping record of how many times they have called me… I think this makes it about 5.

I just “submit a Story” on the carte blanche website… so let’s see what happens.. Maybe more ppl should actualy submit the story to carte blanche instead of just suggesting it???
