****s involving makro, checkers, takealot

****s via my cel phone have been running for about 3 months; having thought they were done, they now start again. I got an email from Makro showing I had won a gift, to claim it I should click on the link. I sent this email to MAKRO Germiston, asking if this WAS a **** mail, I did receive acknowledgement of my email.. but nothing else..? I have now received ANOTHER email showing that I DID NOT COLLECT MY GIFT. I would have thought MAKRO head office would have posted something to say, there is a **** going around or it is legitimate! ........ in saying that, the **** in June/July involved Checkers and Takealot, although I sent emails to both of these companies, neither of them responded
