I got an email on the 24th saying I had won this: http://blog.cyberpowerpc.com/2013/06/05/toms-hardware-cyberpower-haswell-cpu-pc-sweepstakes/. I checked out all the info, the phone number matched up with the company's listed number, and I found the reply to email (mbergen@bestofmedia.com) was listed on bestofmedia.com itself as a contact email to send job related stuff to, so I trust it. So I called to confirm and then sent in the forms.

Now, just today I noticed that on the 17th, someone else had posted a thread (http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-1706382/toms-sweepstakes-email-real.html) saying he had gotten an email saying he won... So... I'm guessing he either didn't trust it or got disqualified for whatever reason?

Thoughts?

This is the email I received:

Congrats on a sweet win. But my guess would be, they probably didn't reply soon enough :p I dont check my e-mail even once a week usually xD 2 days seems... very harsh
