uk-prizes.co.uk uses a variety of methods to get people to write reviews for them at zero cost.
Uk-prizes.co.uk is part of Teglo Media ltd which is currently in the process of being struck off the registered companies list because it was late filing its accounts for last year.
Uk-prizes.co.uk send out floods of spam emails trying to make people into believing they have won (or can earn) a voucher to spend at a supermarket or Amazon or Argos or Marks and Spencer or Primark etc.
e.g.
Congratulations.

Your email has been selected.
Cadbury Hampers has launched the batch of chocolate Cadbury hampers.
129 of these are now available for subscribers to this newsletter.
Now, If you don’t respond to these emails there are lots of follow-up messages and sometimes you get one that says you are now one of only three people left in the draw. That email actually lists the other two people which is of course breaking the data protection laws.
One such email stated confirmation required by 31st January but the email was dated 6th February. OOPS.
Do uk-prizes actually have any vouchers to give away?
Not known but certainly they don’t publish lists of previous winners and the competitions appear to have no end date.
