Scam Alert!!!

Is anyone getting emails supposed to be from Curry's PC World ?

This past few weeks I have been getting emails thanking me for completing my online survey on customer satisfaction rating my purchase from Curry's PC World. I have never completed any survey.
As a thank you I have been selected to receive a new Apple I phone. Can I reply by clicking on the Link to claim my I Phone!!!

I cannot remember the last time I bought anything from Curry's
More than likely a marketing ploy but when yo look at the email curries.con I think they can hang on to my Apple I Phone.

Lewis, if that were true you would be the only person I ever heard of paying too much tax.

That Currys one, I get an email nearly every day having won something Dyson Vac or the like and just have to send a small amount of cash to get it sent. Obviously you can't unsubscribe. Rang Currys up. That was a laborious procedure in itself. Got told they new about it but couldn't do anything about it. Another one I found on fleabay. A high priced tool for sale at a ridiculously low price. It was only up for a short time. Then another one, more or less the same but different seller name, town of origin. That's down after a short time, then another one. One does have to be on ones guard nowadays doesn't one.
