TODAY I WAS SITTING HERE WITH MY LADY FRIEND. WHEN A NICE LOOKING HIGH SCHOOL KID CAME KNOCKIN ON MY DOOR.. TRYING TO SELL MAGAZINES TO WIN A TRIP TO CANCUN. I BOUGHT INTO IN AND PURCHASED 2 MAG.. AND COST ME 90$. HE WANTED CASH BUT I DONT DO THAT FOR THESE REASONS. SO I WROTE HIM OUT A CHECK. HE WAS VERY WELL TRAINED.. VERY GROOD PERSONALITY. HE WAS A NICE KID.

AFTER HE LEFT NO MORE THEN 2 HOURS I WAS SOOO SUSPIOUS OF THE WHOLE DEAL I WENT ON THE INTERNET TO CHECK OUT THE SITE.. I COULDNT FIND A PHONE NUMBER FOR THE COMPANY TO CALL AND BOOM THERE IT WAS ALONG WITH 90 PLUS OTHER PEOPLE THAT GOT SCAMMED WITH THE SAME LINES. THE SAME *BUG OFF* MESSAGE TO HANG ON YOUR DOOR AND WHATNOT. ARE THE KIDS IN ON THIS TOO?? THIS KID DIDNT LOOK A DAY OVER 17 WHAT GIVES?

TODAY IS SAT. SO FIRST THING MONDAY MORNING I WILL BE STOPPING PAYMENT ON CHECK.SO I SHOULD BE SAVED. WHY ARE THERE PEOPLE OUT THERE LIKE THIS? I FOR ONE SAID I WOULD NEVER BE SCAMMED BUT TAKE IT FROM SOMONE WHO IS SOOOO CAUTIONS OF EVERYONE, IT CAN HAPPEN TO YOU TOO!!! NO MORE DOOR TO DOOR SALESMANS COMING TO MY DOOR!!

All the Mag Crew Kid's are under the impression when we start that what we are saying is true

I used to do the magazine thing door to door just not for PMA i worked for USA (universal subscription agency) But they are pretty much all the same our trip was for cancun, bermuda, and nassau and we won $1,000 dollars once we secured $20,000 points. These kid's are all mostly between 18-25 years old and most look and dress young it just looks more presentable and less obvious than wearing a suit and tie or dressed up all nice. most of these people are not trying to scam you and the bug off stickers are more or less show off to other companies, tell the carhandler the last place they were (just in case something bad happens) and yes they do keep the other sales agents from knocking on the door usually. The sayings like i used to say "BUG OFF! Amanda Rocks, Don't Knock!" and my company name and code number USA #012 and usually i had bright colors like pink and green and orange and yellow so they could be seen by the carhandlers and other agents from the street. All the Mag Crew Kid's are under the impression when we start that what we are saying is true whatever "spill" we are trained with is usually the one we start out with and we are trained by people that do the exact same thing.
