Complaint Review: American Poetry Society

I submitted a Poem and recieved a glowing letter of praise and a request for permission to publish it in there new up-coming Anthology Book Titled Expressions. As was also requested I sent them check for $47.00 for payment of the book. After several months had passed and I had not recieved the book with my Poem in it, I became suspicious.

I was able to contact them once more, and they replied the Book would be out this spring. Since then I have not heard another word not recieved the book,and now I can no longer find there web site to contact them further.

I now believe they are a total rip off, and that they are fraudulently collecting money from ameture poetry writers who believing ther work will be published are paying in advance for a fictious book.
