The way all the audience got taxed when they were given a car each on Oprah?! LOL!

Yep, exactly. The kicker is, sometimes the prize-givers will offer to pay the taxes. Then the winner has to pay taxes on THAT amount, LOL. Gotta love the IRS.

Serious?!?! That's nuts!

I guess you can never win the full amount =/

We don't get taxed for winnings here...

gotte love these kind of scamms.

No one is scamming anything, here. As dubious as some of us think some business decisions have been made, I seriously doubt they would try to do anything illegal.
