    Default Bali Holiday Raffle - Ronald McDonald House Charities

    Hey Guys,

    I am an ambassador for Ronald McDonald House Charities in Perth and as a part of our fund-raising efforts, Midland McDonald's is hosting a fantastic raffle for a Bali holiday.

    Tickets are just $1.

    The prize includes, for TWO people,
    Return Flights ex Perth
    7 Nights Accom
    Return Airport Transfers
    10 Bali Slingshot Rides
    Surfing Lessons on Kuta Beach
    Entry to Bali Safari + Marine Park
    Bali Zoo
    and heaps more!

    I'm sorry if this looks like advertising, but I thought that the highest concentration of people that would most enjoy this fantastic prize.

    So all the money goes straight to funding the good work of Ronald McDonald House Charities.

    Tickets are available in-store at Midland McDonalds and many other locations!

    Thanks for looking guys and I look forward to your support.

    Matt

    Ok I want to know how we can see if this is legit. Anyone can make a website and say they are charity. Does Ronald McDonald House know about this and why isn't your site secure for banking? I am not saying I doubt you but you are a total stranger asking for money on quite a few different forums.
    I can't visit McDonalds in Perth so want to know if I send money I will get raffle tickets that will generate real prizes.

    Hey Bolli, I completely understand your concerns, and I appreciate your interest in our raffle!

    Once you enter the payment gateway in which you make payment, the site is completely secure.
    Ronald McDonald House Charities in Perth, whose marketing is co-ordinated by PPR Australia has the full details of this raffle.

    Attatched is pictures of our tickets.

    You can phone the store tomorrow on (08) 9274 1075 (you can verify this is the store by googling Midland McDonald's) and I'll be happy to chat with you to confirm this. Alternatively, you can email our Restaurant Manager at 0174@store.mcd.com.au and he can confirm this.


    You could also confirm this with any of the sponsors listed on the website that these prizes have been donated.

    I'll pop up some pictures of our advertising in the store too if that's cool?

    Hope this helps to ease your worries, we are genuinely just raising money for the charity :D

    Why are you hiding the domain registration and why are the name servers for a server in the Philippines?

    Hey guys,

    It is registered in the Philippines because that was the cheapest name servers I could find, didn't want to waste the charity's money on unneccessary things.

    I am a novice web designer but I have a basic knowledge of cPanel and HTML coding. I am unsure how to un-hide the domain registration?
    Perhaps a PM from you could help me fix this?

    If you are unsure, feel free to buy in-store, or maybe pay with PayPal as to have a method of buyer protection?

    If you still feel unsure, we have been selling hundreds online, and you could wait for any of these people to recieve their tickets and buy after that?

    Thanks for your interest,
    Matt

    As with the email I have just sent admin,

    We are McDonald's Midland running a fundraiser for Ronald McDonald House Charities
    We are opperating under the McHappy Day license. As the prize-pool is under the $5k threshold a permit number is not required.

    We can be contacted as follows:

    I am Matt, or you can speak to Brendan our restaurant manager by contacting us on (08) 92741075
    The email is above I believe.

    We are at Cnr Gt Eastern and Lloyd in Midland.

    Hope this helps......

    It is probably a good idea also to include the place, time and date of the draw of the raffle, how many tickets are being sold etc.
