    I logged onto onidaadvertising.com and got nothing put an Apache service screen which basically means the site exists, but there is no content.   A WHOIS search revealed the following:

    Domain Name: ONIDAADVERTISING.COM
      Registrar: INDIALINKS WEB HOSTING PVT.LTD.
      Whois Server: whois.domainsrs.com
      Referral URL:indialinks.com
      Name Server: NS5.INDIALINKS.COM
      Name Server: NS6.INDIALINKS.COM
      Status: ok
      Updated Date: 04-sep-2010
      Creation Date: 04-sep-2010
      Expiration Date: 04-sep-2011

    Apparently Onidaadvertising.com  is using an Indian domain server known as IndiaLinks based in Mumbai India, and was created on Sepember 4, 2010, like three days ago.   If this doesn't scream fraud, I don't know what does.

    There is an Onida company in India that does manufacture DVD equipment and there is an Onida Advertising company as well.  Both have been around awhile but I don't know if they are related in any way.  What seems problematical is Onidaadvertising.com having anything to do with the two legitimate Onida companies.

    India Links does have  an Email address to direct complaints about user abuse: abuse@indialinks.com, but good luck getting them to do anything.   Most of their business involves providing internet service to Indian-based  internet/consumer fraud of some sort.

    This is a textbook scam, people! No, you didn't randomly win anything, money or merchandise. It's a scam to either get you to pay them a "handling fee" (and you never see your "prize", I guarantee it) or they tack charges onto your phone bill.
