We want to stress that we will NEVER ask you to click on an online link to redeem prizes, and we will NEVER ask you for your bank details to confirm your identity. We will NOT notify the winners by sending them social media DM messages or by replying to your comments. Winners will be notified directly using their preferred contact details.
