We were met with the same situation in Kuta - - my partner had the lucky scrathy and won the BIG prize - - we followed them to an office and they tried the hard sell on us but after about 10 mins I said No way - - this is not going to happen and took both of us out of the office much to the disgust of the people who were in the street and in the office - - saw lots of people doing the scam every time we went in to Kuta so this is happening a lot.
You need to be aware and assertive - - remember "if it seems too good to be true it probably is"
