send them information and call the number   but NEVER PAY FOR ANYTHING YOU HAVE WON! DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR SS NUMBERS.    IF ITS A BIG PRIZE THEY WILL SEND YOU AN AFFY   FED EX  OR UPS. OR HAVE YOU PRINT AN AFFY FROM A WEB SITE THEY SEND YOU.

smertes7 - I always use what info they give to see if it was 1} listed at SA and 2} If yes, did I enter it?

If I get yes for both, I know it's a winner - so, did you enter it?  scratch

smertes7 - I sent you a pm to let you know that I moved your post here - Admin prefers only winning posts go in the Sweepstakes Winners Circle forum, since they link off the home page, thanks!

If/when you confirm this IS a win, you can pm me to move it back, or you can start a new thread - I hope it IS real, gl!!!  headbang
