I was approached on Dec 12, a young teenage girl came to my door said that she was trying to make enough money to go on a trip from her school, I was not sure about buying i usuall dont read magazines too often, but i looked through them.
I saw a magazine my kids would love so i decided to get one for them.
It was christmas and i like to help kids raise money for different activities, I have 3 kids of mine own and i know how it is for them so i found one that i thought my kids would like
and proceed to fill out the form and write out a check for it.
She seemed nice enough and eager and explained how it works and how many points she was getting and told me where her trip was too.
But later on i was wondering when my magazine would come and notice no phone numbers to call just a address. And it says about 90 to 120 days that is unusally long time for a magazine to arrive.
So i decided to look on the net for a phone number to call to see how long before i get the subscription.
BOY i was shocked to find out they are a scam and how many people have not gotten their magazines. I cant believe it, this is shame how people will take advantage and the sad part is, if any one ever tries to sell me stuff unless i know them i wont buy.
That hurts the ones that are really trying to raise money.
