Poetry.com, Lulupoetry.com
Beware! We have been scammed at Poetry.com which is now Lulupoetry.com. We need a class action lawsuit to recoup our monies!

After years of getting letters I had won editors choice and being a semi-finalist with my poetry being published in a deluxe edition I finally sent in $145 in December '08 as a gift for my grandaughter as a poem I had written for her had won being included in the "immortal Verses" edition. The check was cashed and in my attempt to get in touch with them all I got was full voice mail numbers. I recently went to the wesite and it is now Lulupoetry.com with a note saying the doamin has been bought from a "failed company". This is an attempt to make it appear this comapny has no relation to Poetry.com but only purchased the domain. However, they are using the same email address, help@poetry.com.

So, I did a Whois to see who the website is registered under and got the following. As you can see the domain name was registered to the same company as the person who changed the doamin name to Lulupoetry. There is a phone and fax number for them and I did call but once again you are unable to speak to anyone. I did manage to leave a voice message but non one retruns my calls. These people need to be STOPPED!!! Ripping off people and then starting a new site to do it all over again is criminal.

I have filed a coamplaint in Maryland and North Carolina where the registrant of the website is based and am in the process of calling my local and natioanl news to expose these people for what they are. While there are a hand full of people who did receive their books etc. There are many who did not and will not. Bel;ow is the information I got when I did the WHOIS on who registered the website.
