    I just got the message. So, glad I looked this up first. I don't when the last time I bought anything at Best Buy.
    The message came from 815-579-9742 and said to enter code 4787.

    951-662-9724 "Your entry last month has WON!"  is what I received today (playing on faulty memories!)

    What do they gain exactly from this?

    Thanks for this forum!
