i already knew it was a catch but ok i had to buy some magazines okay no problem i wanted them anyway.
- Since when does "winning" something require you to pay for your prize or buy something?
So you figure that even if you bought $500 in Magazines(which I really hope you didn't) that you would somehow magically get a $1000 Walmart gift card?
If you have e-mail and/or other documentation that says without exception you would receive a Walmart Gift card then yes you could go after them. However, for the time and trouble you spend in trying to track down who to go after. If they are a scam they will probably have closed up shop and moved on to another scam. The best thing you may want to do is look at that site and see if you can get anything of value out of it..without spending any more money.
Otherwise think of this as an expenssive lesson..although hopefully not too expensive.
