Nickelodeon magazine order never arrived after door-to-door sale

I am completely stunned...
One Sunday afternoon a charming, energetic young girl came to my door to sell magazines. I first told her that I truly could not afford any magazines then, mainly since I had just purchased a few subscriptions for a fund raiser at the middle school of my co-worker's son. The girl said she needed points toward winning a trip, and that her mother was reluctant to go from house to house at this type of job, and so on. I fell for it. The afternoon was quite warm. She was so charming that I gave her a can of Pepsi, then permitted her to enter my house and use the restroom. She took my postdated check, and she also paid $15.00 in cash toward the charge for processing and handling.

This happened on 10/27/07. As of today the magazine has not come; the subscription I chose was Nickelodeon, meant for my two young daughters. I have dialed the number printed on the receipt at all different times of day and never reached a live person. A machine answers, claims to be assisting "other satisfied customers" and asks me to call back or try a different extension. When I pressed zero to reach an operator, the recording stated that no operator connection was possible right now. I also visited their website, and it states that the site is being rebuilt. Nothing legitimate exists for contacting this company. I consider the entire pitch a scam.

What saddens me is that young children are being used to exploit people, in an illegal scheme to take their hard earned money. Be careful of sweet innocence knocking on your door to solicit. Looks can deceive, and their innocence leaves a bitter-sweet taste!
