I have received similar e-mails several times and they have always gone to my junk file. I have also had ones purporting to be from various supermarkets saying I have been specially selected to receive vouchers.

I seem to get about six scam junk mails a day but I have to be careful because the odd genuine e-mail goes into junk for some reason.

It's a good idea to warn people about these scams, thanks Devorgilla

I think this has been going on for a while but I have just received messages telling me I have been specially selected to do their survey and will get a free gift. Info on line seems to suggest it would be an electric toothbrush costing £100. I did not do their survey, click any links. Instead, I checked the email it had been sent from. First one had the words 'no sh*t' in it which I didn't think was quite Boots' style. Be aware.
