Reader's Digest Scam?

Dear folks at Reader's Digest,

I have been receiving your mails about me "standing a chance to win" bla bla bla if I bla bla bla bla. I normally discard your mails because it sounds too good to be true and to be quite honest, I think it's a whole load of hogwosh if you ask me - especially when you request us to reply and return confirmation slips etc. I also feel it's a waste of good paper. Thank God you stopped. Well almost.

Yesterday, another mail came into the post from the Office of the Prize Award Administrator of Mayvin Seeneevasen.

" DAPHNE M IKING, YOU MADE IT. 99% of Malaysians have not been included in our offer and this time and will not receive an important envelope within the next few days. That envelope may contain a winning opportunity, and could you become RM250,000 richer!"

hmmmm.

Has anyone received similar letters?

  5. I received a letter from RD to my name and home address. In it was a lottery scratch & win ( A car + Cash), a chance to win over RM250K IF i were to subscribe to RD for a year. I last read a RD when i was in my early teens but i have never joined a contest of such lucrative offer. I knew it must be a scam because it repeated my name 'Jason Patricks' several times. Scam,scam, scam...
