They basically tricked me into purchasing magazines. A girl named Carrie called me to tell me that I was one of the finalists to win a million dollars or a five hundred dollar gift card. They asked me my name, address, age, marital status, and occupation. Then she asked about what kind of credit card I like to use and asked for my debit card number so I could order about six subscriptions of magazines. She gave me the order number and a couple of phone numbers. I feel pretty dumb because she sweet talked me into doing this crap.

  • I've been going through this for five years. Do not make the same mistake I made! I was young and stupid. Anyway, they tried to get me again a few weeks ago but I wasn't having it. When they tell you that you can't cancel, they are lying. I FINALLY was able to cancel everything. I recommend going through all the publishers first (even if they don't have you on record) and then calling this number: 1-800-589-7998. Make sure you're speaking to the customer service people and NOT the sales department. There IS a difference. I got my money back as well. Make sure when you cancel, you get it in writing, just to be on the safe side. There is a way out! I am posting this so everyone else can see. I hope this reaches you and can get out of this mess too!
