I have just had an email telling me that I have 4 roundtrip air tickets to fly for free on SouthWest Airlines! "So, would you please confirm your details, so we know where to send them" Click here to get started. ( This is the link ) We look forward to having you fly with us!

Sincerely, SWA Promotions

Anyone else had this email sent to them? I firmly believe this is a scam, with somebody after my bank account -they would be disappointed! - similar to other scams from distant shores! geedad

What fun, will be waiting for mine - we might end up on same flights (of fancy)

So (do you really have to) ask yourself:

Am I a customer of SouthWest Airlines?

Do I have one of their Rapid Rewards Cards?

Have I qualified for entry for their More Rewards Sweepstakes?

Have I ever given SouthWest Airlines my email address or details?

rdave13 Yes, I've had those as well, but they were obvious, with their bad spelling and stupid requests. Got to stay alert! Thanks geedad
