I am new to this site. A few days ago In my browser an ad on an offer given by online shopping site called shophunk came up . The ad asked the viewer to select one of the cards from the 4 displayed in the ad.I did so.Then a notification came mentioning the following " congrats, you won a lucky draw .Claim now".When I clicked on claim now button, it directed me to the main site mentioning that I have become eligible for Samsung S3 phone at a price of Rs.799/- . So to claim it I had to type in my shipping address and I made the payment through netbanking fecility.
Till then, it appeared all smooth and fine. But the window which came after payment confirmation mentioned that I have become elifible for a lucky draw in which 15 people selected will win prizes, which will be intimated through mail.It also says that if we don't win the lucky draw, the amount given will be converted to equalent credit points which we can redeem for some gifts bought through shophunk.
In short either I have to buy something from shophunk or I will loose my money.I feel cheated . Can I do something about this? I have attached screen shots of browser windows which I mentioned in the writeup.Shophunk - fraud offers-shophunk-capture.jpgShophunk - fraud offers-phone-capture.jpg
