The \u00a0Sign Up buttons open suspect third-party websites that offer the chance to win further prizes in exchange for providing your name and contact details.  \u00a0Fine print on the websites explains that, by participating, you are agreeing to share your personal information with various sponsors \u00a0and marketing companies.<\/p>\n<p>So, if you go ahead, you will soon be inundated with unwanted and annoying emails, phone calls, text messages, and letters peddling a range of products and services that you most likely neither want nor need.<\/p>\n<p>And no matter how many offers you complete, you will never get the chance to enter the promised Love Island holiday prize draw, which was never real to begin with. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p><script async
