This company send out mail that loks like a notice of failed delivery. It makes if look like you are due some kind of expensive camera and all you need to do is send them this $12 plus a handling fee. The envelope has warnings about "$2000 fines" and "years of impresonment" for obstructing delivery, and cites various US codes and titles. It claims to be an "URGENT NOTIFICATION".
The letter inside is a form that has various checkboxes with key ones checked off. Since there are only certain ones they need, including the other ones is just to decieve the recipient.
The text is very carefully written to look like you owe money, but NEVER makes the actual statement that you OWE anything. It even includes a document number.in reall life this number would be different on each letter. I am sure that everyone that got this cr*p got the same number.
I wasn't stupid enough to send away for the camera. I am not due anything and neither is my 80 year old mother. They sent this cr*p to her. Trying to steal her few remaining dollars. It arrived the same day she burried her husband of 60 years.
I am sure the camera has a real value of about $1.00. I think DMI stands for Deceptive Marketing International... If the shoe fits.
