Competition web site's! Has any one won!

[whindy]

There is a lot of raffle sites on Facebook etc and some wonderful cars etc to be won. Most appear to be based in Ireland.
The prizes mostly stop their. Nearly a draw every night for a hi end prizes often a £50.000. Car with only 60% sell out.
They must be the biggest scam out there.
Any one actually won anything???

I was on a stag do last month with a guy who had one twice on BOTB (I think). One price was a Mustang and the other a home entertainment system.

Local chap won a 6910JD a while back. He sold her back to the chap the competition crowd bought it off.

It sounds a bit like the contests they run on Wave105FM, where you text "win" to the number and get a chance of the prize money (£125,000 this week) It costs £2 to enter and another £2 gets you 3 more entries. The prizes used to be smaller, such as £20,000, but it was just in our local area, but now they have weaned everyone onto it, the prize can be at any of their stations across the country so the catchment is huge. Hundreds of thousands must enter and they have to make millions every day from it..

What happens if not enough tickets are sold?
Seems lot of them running and expensive prizes?
Is there thousands of people buying tickets???

Quite a few local people have won prizes off bounty hunters draw which is a fairly local one.

A friend has a motorcycle shop and he's supplied them with a few motorbikes for draws.

Better odds than the lottery. I have bought tickets for a few rare cars they have had up for grabs. Escort cosworth being one.

Mate won a 2t mini digger and I for Williams plant trailer - it actually was real!!! Thought he was pulling my leg to start with

Afaik if the tickets arent all sold the winner gets around 70% of the value of tickets sold which leaves the company with the other 30% plus they still have the prize for another raffle down the line. Theyl be makin a fortune

My brother in law won an Audi RS3 on one by a company called 7day giveaways. Bought a couple of tickets. They generate a random number on google (all this while live streaming the draw) and his name came up.

He couldn’t believe it.!!

I bet it had the number plate of the owner still on the trailer.

It amazing that they all have good reviews on trust pilot.
They probably run a few machinery Web sites on the side.
