Re: Encyclopedias?

Did they ask for any information? This sounds a little like a scam...

Re: Encyclopedias?

I just checked with FRC Teams. The offer is legitimate! Go for it!

Go for it? Along with the letter saying they probably got the wrong team, my mentor sent them the information to send it to us. It's just weird because we had absolutely nothing to do with Atlanta this year and they're congratulating us on our "victory at Atlanta" and sending us stuff!

Did you see Uncle Rico's name anywhere?



Seriously though, encyclopedia's don't seem like a very FIRSTey prize (although I could be wrong). Maybe something like a tablet with access wiki or something.....

I would definatley contact the FLL team. And perhaps you could post where this letter came from, as mentioned earlier. I'm going to have to agree with Jeremiah, this sounds like a scam (hence the Nap. reference above).

My 2 cents.

Jacob

Yes it was a confusing message. That is why I reported it to FRC Teams. Again FRC Teams verified that it is a legitimate offer. What you decide to do with it is up to you.
