Even when it comes from a trusted source you need to be careful if you are not a user of the paid service. When you register the voucher you still have to give your credit or debit cards details and pay a £5 "deposit", then if you don't keep an eye on its progress you'll find you run up a bill.
Nothing you can't avoid with a bit of due care and attention admittedly, but worth flagging up all the same.

Hi,
We've had customers that have been scammed and "promised to be number one" and relieved of hundreds (sometimes thousands) of pounds by misleading sales companies - some of whom even 'claim' to be Google(!) As one new customer recently said.. "You don't get nought for nought".
Best Regards,
Paul

I don't think Google will see your post here.
Why not to write to them instead? I'm sure they would be interested to hear.

As everyone else has mentioned the best you can expect is a voucher for anything up to £75, I had a similar situation where I continually ignored googles voucher offering and every two weeks or so they would send me a larger value voucher.
