Complaint Review: Circle Of Photographers

I entered a image in a photography contest with the hopes of getting my picture published. Shortly thereafter I recieved a e-mail stating that my image had benn selected of almost 9000 entries and that it would be published in this coffetable manuscript. However I was to buy this manuscript for $59.00.

Red Flags should have popped up their but for some reason they didn't ( I've always wanted my images published --what photographer dosen't?) and I went ahead and sent them my money but now I can not contact them in any way. Their e-mail adress is no longer accepting mail--it will however accept your money..

to indeed make sure I was getting scamed I sent in another entry using a really crappy snapshot and a differnt name & e-mail adress. This photo to recieved the same reply. I am so ready to sue They preyed on my hopes and dreams and now I think they should have to pay... or I would at least like my money back. I have a household with 7 mouths to feed any extra money is a rarety
