I've been a contestant on Brainteaser, and can safely say that their phone in questions are so simple that there would never be an occasion where a single member of the audience would fail to get the answer. And even if that was the case, why make up fake winners? This is fraud, pure and simple, and I hope that the regulator takes the strongest possible action against those responsible.

If you feel that you have been ripped off by any TV Quiz lines then call 0906 182838 and leave your details. (all calls charged at £5 per minute)

To hang with the regulators.

Surely this is a job for the polis - it's fraud.

All telephone calls are registered. It should be possible to trace EVERY single phone call made to these chancers and FULL refunds made - Plus compensation of course.

It would be even better if they took the gibbering idiots off those all night quiz show things. And "Brainteaser" could be split into two - "brain" and "teaser" - an oxymoron!!!!

I thought Oxymoron was a stupid beef stock cube - until I discovered Smoffnir!

Im not surprised there are no winners. Has anyone tried to solve the puzzle.

You see things like 1+9+5+8+1 and the answer is never 24.

And when it is down to a 50:50 and the prize has been trebled for 5 minutes only, there are never any callers. Strange that.

F**king con!
