..but why did you not at least check the website before you gave out account information? There seems to be no such website as American Poets Society. Nor does anything come up if you search for it online, unless you include the term "rip off" in the search.

So since there is no such society, and no such website..how were they communicating with you? You do state in the report you called them. How did you get a phone number to a non existent entity?

This is the kind of info that may help others avoid the same fate.
