I got an email on this one. Problem is that I can't find any info on this sweepstakes. I don't remember entering and can't find it in current or expired sweeps. Anyone have an idea as to if it is legit?

"CONGRADULATIONS" got me suspicious too. I saw the usmagazine one but this doesn't seem to be the same one. I'll probably reply just to see what they say.

chrispipkin - I assume they don't state Sponsors/JA's [Judging Agency/Agencies] other than just Sol Pacifico Cerritos?

Could you share the email address - just after the @ - I might be able to uncover more that way

Or, you could always just ask them here - I think?

or on their FB page

I responded. It looks like it is just a lame attempt to sell timeshares probably. I'll pass. Full email exchange is below for anyone else who might get an email from them.

I got it too! It's got to be a bait and switch or a time share/vacation club type thing. If there was one prize, then why did we all get it? Definitely fishy. This is why SA rocks and those on it do as well.
 
I got the email too and thought it was illegal to notify someone that they won a specific sweepstakes and not provide the prize in the rules! :-(
