Complaint Review: consolidated media services

I enrolled in a magazine service by the name of Viking Magazine.

A few days later I got a call and the person on the other end of the phone stated "This is your magazine service and we need to verify your information".

I gave my information and then the person hung up on me. A month later my account was charged and more magazines started coming in the mail.

My account was charged twice and I ended up having to change accounts. This resulted in 3 checks bouncing. I then began getting past due letters in the mail from Consolidated Media Services.

I would try to call the number on the caller ID from when they would call but I would get a message saying that this number is no longer is service.

They have now sent me a letter saying that they are taking me to collections. This scam has currently cost me $205+.
