We have all seen these whats the catch?

You get them in every magazine these days you scratch them off and you win a prize like these

£100,000 cash x 1
£20,000 cash x 1
Holiday in Australia x 1
£5,000 cash x 3
Holiday in Cyprus x 1000
Digital Camera x 100
£250 cash x 100

I have read all the small print, and it states that all holidays include the full package, and no obligation to purchase any extras. Calls to the hotline to claim cost £1.50 per minute, and calls will take no longer than 3 mins 50 secs.

If you win the holiday it's only for 1 person. Also, a clause in the conditions states that if there are more than a set amount of winners for one prize it will be split between all eligible entrants. What's £250 divided by 10,000?

My gran once won a free ferry crossing to france. It departed in just over a week, came back the next day and only covered 1 foot passanger, and no car.
