I must say Damart do swamp you with emails and catalogues - but I have had some very good buys from them and am reluctant to stop it. I have the same swamping from some puzzle magazines I subscribe to - the number of trial issues I've had I hardly need subscriptions! I have blocked their e-mails but not their post as I always hope each envelope might mean another prize! |

What about forwarding the letter (copy of it) to Trading Standards, or the progs on the tv about being scammed. |

Someone I know had won something on Readers Digest but not claimed as she had forgotten about it. They tracked her down some time later and she had won £2,000. |

My mother must have been one of Damarts best customers, judging by the number of similar letters she had from them. |

Hello Elizabeth:)...l did to, but some may not want to read that or whatever, the beginning of the letter is very cleverly written it implies l have won, sample or not!! |
