Sources close to Curated, who organized the contest with the help of numerous social media celebrities, told TMZ that the contest was legit and that they have documentation to prove it.

Curated Businesses replies, “We are engaging the services of a third-party facilitator to conduct a random draw of all eligible participants.
“They are approved by the Australian government and meet the requirements. As required by Australian law, we also engage the services of a fully qualified independent inspector to oversee the random drawing.”
