fair trading, re. Magnamail Pty promotion 17.06.02, pobx 91 903 AUCK.
rule 1 says there will be a total of 480,ooo magnamail catalogues
distributed amongst residents of australia + nz
the letter says YOU have been named as A CONFIRMED prize WINNER.
therefore there should be 480ooo prizes. the letter says
remember, if you don't pay30 your prize IT WILL BE GIVEN TO SOMEONE ELSE.
rule 6 says the prizes are(daihatsu)LESS, $1000 cash A, colour tv,
canon camera, 42ooo calculators australia
plus 16,900 calculators nz. $5- (average prize value $A0.65.4 cents.)
therefore there are only 60,ooo prizes not 480,ooo.
THEREFORE 420,OOO PRIZES MAY NOT GIVEN AWAY AS CLAIMED.MISLEADING CLAIM.
please explain, please investigate, please report. Thank you
yours sincerely, / Don S. McDonald (Wellington, New Zealand)
