Thought this was neat and would share it.

Got a message on the phone today saying I won an iPad and to call a number back. I was confused as hell as to how this happened, but called back.

Apparently when I test drove the Fiat 500 at the International Auto Show I was automatically entered into a draw to win an iPad, and amazingly, I won!

Quite shocking. I was just looking at the Fiat 500 on the show floor and a rep came up and said "would you like to drive it?" to which I said "ya, that would be fun!"

She then took me outside to their tent and I was off in the Fiat. I had no idea you could actually test drive cars at the car show (well, I guess chrysler/jeep/dodge was the only one).

Anyway, neat story, thought I would share.

What dotted line did you have to sign on?

When I did the test drive they just asked for a copy of my license (which of course they have to do) and then there was a block of text below.... I don't even remember signing anything.

Ya, this one is actually legit. I got all the paperwork from him and there is no money involved... it's in the mail. I am not stupid, I work in marketing and know how all the scams work.
