Nah. Just shout "STOP" really loudly.

It's pretty silly really. At a guess, I would say that you have to reply to take part. If you want to you can either reply:
"PS3 some@email.address"
if you want them to contact you via email should you win.
"PS4 some postal address"
if you want them to contact you via post should you win.
"STOP"
if you don't want to see any more of these pseudo-language texts.

Yes, I'm still young!

the fact I understood it - does that make me a) really, really cool, b) a casualty of the modern era, or c) really really good at decryption?

"STOP" is to stop them sending you messages I think. And my work is next door to Project Scotland if you want me to pay them a "polite" visit ;)
