A blanket statement with no evidence to back it up. So just because it happened at your workplace every other small computer shop must be the same?

You make a claim that this sort of giveaway done by a computer shop are all fake - well I wish to disagree as I personally know a couple of people who have won this sort of giveaway from small shops (a nice PC from Mwave and PLE) and neither person has any connection with the shops.
Unfortunately, I have yet to break through the bad luck barrier, but hoping that one day I can.
Remember that if you don't join in, you cannot win.Is your friend Chinese?
Not sure why you ask if they are Chinese especially as these giveaways are for Australians, but no, neither is Chinese.
Both are dinky-die Aussies, born to Australian parents and as to their family's origins - one is from Scotland (won a PC) and the other is mixed European (won a keyboard).
I cannot guarantee that every computer shop giveaway is real, but from what I've seen, at least the well recognised and larger ones have been real and I would put Scorptec into this category.
The Scotish PC winner was one of many "Pimp-MY-PC" winners which Mwaxe gave away at this year's IEM event in Sydney. We met several other winners at the Mwave booth as they turned up to watch their new PC being built.
I've managed to win three times from PLE and have no connection to them.
Once on email based competition like 10 years ago, about two years ago on a facebook comp and more recently on an instagram comp. Definitely legit they are a good bunch.
These small computer shop competitions are all fake. I used to work for one but I wont give out the name, the competition winner is usually a friend or family of the owner or friend's friend, or staff and family.
