One day my daughter and I were sitting alone at our house when someone knocked at the door. He said that he was trying to win a trip to Italy. He had a laminated packet that had all these books and activities for kids and magazines on it. They had different point values on it and he had to get so many points to win the competition. He also had a packet with carbon reciets.
I decided to help him out and bought a book for my grandson to have at my house to read. I didn't have cash for it so I gave him a check. He told me my book would be here in about 8 weeks. My daughter and I were talking about it today and I realized i hadn't received the book yet. I got the reciet and found that it said I had subscribed to a magazine. I checked it out and that's when I saw complaints from other people about the same company.
I wrote my check on May 27. I didn't look to see what day it cleared but I'm pretty sure it was soon after that day that it did. Don't let this happen to you, don't fall for scams like this. It's too late for me to get my money back but I hope my story will help other people to not fall for a scam like this.
