I was checking out the contests and giveaway and entered a couple of the new ones.
To me anyway, the one being operated by "Scoob" may be a fishing trip.
That is, a trick to gather emails.
Why do I say that? Because the base domain has nothing to look at and can not be found.
In this contest post, nothing was said about being sent a confirmation link. When I did click on the link, I got an error page.
That was my experience.
In the future I would like the powers that be to install rules and guidelines for posting contests.
If the prize is a DJI product, then the person operating the contest should be established with DJI as a known retailer.
Scammers and spammers will use any trick they can to get emails.
I'd even go so far as to ask permission before that person can post a contest/giveaway.
Just something to consider to protect the legitimate users from the bad ones out there.
