I got one of these from Camelback Toyota and I live close to there and I check the full tab card into the dealership. And they gave me two lottery cards and I believe it was 10 or $20 to a grocery store gift card. So in my my case it was it was legitimate I mean obviously I won the lowest amount but being bored on it on a Saturday and checking it out I got 10 bucks towards the grocery store if I had to drive very far I wouldn't do it because of the cost of gas now

It’s a scam. Got a mailer from port Richey ford when I entered the code online I was informed the prize was expired. I just got the mailer in the Mail the same day.
Hey me too! Except mines from Valley HyundaI Dealers. I’m a guaranteed winner of the opportunity to go to the dealership so they can get me to buy a car!
Not a scam, but just a way to get you in the door. I doubt there is anyone who wins the "big" prizes, but you could get a $10 gift card. That's not enough to get me in the door, so I just toss these mailers into the recycle bin.
When I pulled the tabs I have a match with two HyundaI symbols. Does this mean that I win a free Hyundai? 🤔 I seriously doubt that Larry Miller would give a car away for free instead of a $10 dollar Frys card. must be a scam
Yes I got two kia symbols
It is a scam.
Why would any car dealership spend money for this advertisement. The first thing you see it's a SCAM. Shame on Larry H. Miller Toyota. Why would anyone buy a car from this business.😠😡🤔
Received flyer and game card in mail today. After pulling tabs, and finding a match, I entered PIN number and area code, only to be informed my number had expired. Huh?
Why is my prize number keep saying invalid? when I'm reading it off the flyer...
Us too it really is a scam they just want your information
We keep getting mailers with matching codes for a prize. The prize box makes it look like certain things match a certain prize, but they do not.Every mailer is a winner and you can win ‘one of the items’ on the list, which means the very bottom, <$10, item. My mother in law keeps getting excited about it cause she thinks she keeps ‘winning cars’ ................ I said good luck, can’t wait to see the new car in the driveway you lucky dog you!
Nope you didn't win anything. If you go into the dealership they will match your number with their prize wall and you won't win anything. Maybe a free oil change with your next car purchase.Somewhere on that flyer is says you "may" have won $750.They just bold and highlight words like WON and $750. It is a way to get people into the dealership to then pressure them into sitting down and trying to sell you a car.For context I was bored one afternoon and had a flyer like that so I stopped in (parked around the corner and walked in) before they even let me use my code they wanted to know all my details. Name, phone, email, income, how many cars I owned, SSN... I told them my first name and that I already owned 3 cars and wasn't going to give them the other info. The first lady got very frustrated and demanded I speak with the sales manager. Finally after 10min of not budging they looked up my code and I won nothing :)
Thanks. Good information.
As someone that used to work for a dealership, I can say that most of the giveaways are legit. Some with a catch and some without a catch, just depend on the store. The point of the giveaway is just to get more people to come to the lot so the sales team can work black magic to get you to buy a car. Your entry could be as simple as writing your info on a piece of paper, test drive a car, use the service department, or as complex as buying a car first. Make sure you pay extra attention to the words used.
Nice reply. Thanks
