Has anyone else had a problem when they win a prize with the Online FabShopHop?

I recently won a $100 gift certificate at a site that wasn't even part of the Shop Hop....and they have VERY little fabric to choose from - and a lot of their kits, etc. are either sold out or unavailable at this time.

I even thought I'd get a pair of scissors - they only offer 2...one is Out of Stock and the other is Back-ordered!!!

Is this a joke or what?

you won a gift certificate from a shop not on the hop? Sounds suspicious to me....

Something isn't right here- might want to send the Shop Hop a message and let them know what is going on

Please be very careful. That sounds very suspicious. How could you win something from a shop that wasn't in the shop hop? I agree, you should contact the organizers before you send any information to the shop.

I agree. Is there any place you can contact the Shop Hop organizers?

That is strange, I agree with the others and would contact the ShopHop people right away. And I wouldn't give the store that offered the "prize" any personal information until they're verified as legitimate.

I've contacted the Administrators at FabShopHop - hope they get back to me soon....this is weird - since the shop is NOT part of the Hop.

Keep us posted incase it happens to someone else on this board. We will at least know what to look for.

Thanks
