Is PC World Havesting EMails or is it really down...
PC World’s website is down for maintenance at the moment.
If you visit the site now, they are offering a discount code via email to say sorry for the inconvenience...The news is spreading fast but are they simply harvesting emails?

Who knows. "Give us e-mail, we give you something of value" smells very fishy though.
pcworld.co.uk is a very reputable company here in the UK so I would not expect them to damage their reputation by harvesting email in this way for 'dodgy' reasons but it is not nice to simply ask you to hand over an email address without specifically saying 'it will not be used for purposes other then x y and z and will not be provided to 3rd party companies etc.'
