Complaint Review: AMERICAN PUBLISHERS SERVICE 2348 W. ANDREW JOHNSON HWY MORRISTOWN TN

In approx. Nov. 2010 I recvd a call stating i won a 1,000 shopping spree. Obviously

common sense dictates, that whensumthing sounds 2 good 2 b true, it ususally is.

The catch was- I had 2 buy sum mags. That's the bait & switch mentioned above.

I thought of ordering them 4 a friend who owns a salon in FL. They said the offer

detailswould come in the mail, but I had 2 give my cc# 1st. Bad mistake.

I asked myfriend if she needed, mags, & she said, no & advised me it sounded like a

scam. If hindsight is usually 20-20, in this case it was. When the certificate came

inthe mail, I did not send it in as required, nor specify mags 2 b sent. I figured not

re-sponding 2 the offer was sufficient 4 them 2 conclude I wasn't interested. Then

arbitrary mags started coming in the mail. At 1st I thought they were xtra copies

sent 4 free 2 get me to reconsider. Then the calls started, saying I owed money.

I asked, Do u really xpect me 2 pay 4 mags I never ordered... the response was...

they're "pre-selected, & prepaid by us." I said," well forget it: I never ordered them,

I don't want them, & I'm not paying 4 them." Then the rep say's, "we have u on

tape ordering them." As if I was 2 take their word as gospel. So I said- "send me

the transcripts 4 my Atty." And cancelled my CC. I havesince retained a Corporate

Litigation Lawyer, & have sent a letter to Amer. Pub. Svc 2 cease& desist all CMA

with me under theFederal Statute: FAIR DEBT COLLECTIONPRACTICES ACT, and 2

direct any futher communications 2 my Attorney.
