A young man came to my door wanting me to purchase magazines for his college education. I was very skeptical and was not going to order anything. He continued to talk making reference to my religion. He said that his sister use to attend the same kind of church I belong to.
Needless to say he ended up being very convincing. I should have stuck to my gut, but I ordered one magazine. I paid $24.95 on 9/11/04 and it's 2/5/05 and I've rec'd nothing.
I recently found my pink receipt with my duplicate check attached to it. He had written a 1-866-667-4346 phone # on the back stating that if I had any questions to feel free to call this #. I called this number and it's a mailbox answering service. I decided to check out Mags R Us online and found several reports as to this company being a fraud.
I will never buy anything from door to door people again no matter how convincing or what they say.
