Palmetto Marketing, Inc
Phony Company! Magazine subscription scam

On April 19 my husband I were approached by Ouida Arnold, she stated that she was selling magazine and needed 2,000 points to win a trip to Cancun. She wanted me to pay cash for 1 magazine subscription, but I told her that I will pay for the full amount by check. I thought she was one of the kids from the neighborhood, so I decided to help by ordering 4 magazines totaling $136.00. After the transaction was completed she also told me that this is for charity and even asked for a glass of water because she was coughing and then placed a bug off sticker on the door with a smiley face so others would not come knocking.

I reviewed the order form and noticed that there were no phone or fax number, so I decided to cancel. I filled out the cancellation notice on April 20 and mailed it to PMI in Florida. They sent a response back stating that they were unable to cancel because it was not received within 3 business days. I called my bank and place a stop payment on the check.

On June 6 I was reviewing the order form and noticed that this could possibly be a scam. I went on the internet and searched and found some disturbing information about this company. I read all the complaints from previous clients of the rip-offs. I called my bank and explain the situation asked what to do to prevent this company from taking money from my account. I was told to go to the nearest branch and fill out a Regulation E form. I even went further and closed my account.

I was lucky that I did not get ripped off, but I am sorry for all those people who did by this phony company.
