. . . to be deeply suspicious of this "baby contest"?

This just came up on my Facebook newsfeed. The comments section is full of people tagging each other and encouraging them to upload their child's photo.

It's setting off a million alarm bells in my head - what is this company? What do they do with the photos and personal data that's entered? It looks like you set up a profile for your child and then rope your friends and family into voting - presumably they'll have to supply an email address or other personal data in order to vote.

Has anyone actually entered? Am I right in thinking it's dodgy as hell?

The name and logo look like they're trying to emulate Bibado bibs as well which makes it seem even dodgier

Yes, i thought this was a fairly well known scam. To get money out of you for extra pics, 'professional' ones etc if not to obtain loads of names, addresses.

Urgh. I'd report it!
