Did I just win a 2GB iPod Nano? *UPDATE*

[powwka]

Ok I got this email -

Steven,



I just wanted to drop you a note, to let you know that you were selected as the winner of the Apple 2 GB iPod Nano, in our 12 days of Christmas giveaway. I hope you enjoy it and I hope that CuteFTP is meeting your expectations.



Merry Christmas!

Is it legit? I emailed back asking if he needed my address or phone number...

UPDATE: He just replied to my email and he has my phone # and address already, so I guess this is legit!

Did you enter?

If you did win one, they should be asking how to be able to contact you and how to ship your prize.

I never won anything on the Internet before, but at least the e-mail doesn't look as fishy as other scams.
Congrats if you actually get it!

free ipods + spam = ???

If this is something you actually entered into at a legit website, ie: you submitted your email in some online raffle on amazon.com then yeh I'd say its legit. Otherwise, DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR PHONE # OR ADDRESS!!!

Yes but that was a month or two ago. I don't remember signing up for a contest (but I don't want to tell them that )

looks like they were doing a promotion giving away ipods to people who purchased/registered cuteftp during the time you bought it.

FWIW, Ted Marchut appears to be a real person at CuteFTP

Congrats!

If I were you, I'd just email him back "Thanks! Is there anything you need me to do?".

How about I take a pic of the FedEx guy/gal... I don't think I'm brave enough though.
