This company is sending me things I did not request and they are billing me for it. I'm no coin collector and know nothing on this subject. A while ago this company sent me a catalog with a sample of a 2007 silver dollar. I treated it as junk mail, tossed all the paper stuff and gave the coin to some kid. Today I received a bill that read this:

First, I did not answer any of their advertisement. Second, I did not make a purchase on Dec 20.
I know I didn't get ripoff, or lose any money. They don't have my credit card number. Consumers are allow to keep unsolicited goods without paying for them. I just want to raise awareness and for everyone to know, that there are still companies out there using this tactic. Please be aware, and speak out when it happens to you.
This little incident better not damage my credit report. I will update if this has any interesting development.
