In April, I was contacted by Readers Choice Promotion and I was talked into buying their magazines and giving them my bank account. They also promised me they would send me nice diamond watch to the address i gave them. After hanging up the phone for 5 minutes, something in me told me that this is a scam so I  hurried myself to call back to cancel the order since the guy told me I have 3 days to cancel, but guess what?? The number they gave me was a fake one that I couldn't reach anyone to cancel. I guess their point was to make us unable to cancel the order until it's past 3 days when they already take the money. They then took $68.28 from my bank account. And up until now, July 17th, I still haven't received anything from them yet, the magazines as well as the watch they promised. I then changed my bank account number so this won't happen anymore. And they have been calling my number like crazy since  June to tell me that I'm overdue and that I have to pay them $204. I'm pregnant and I need frequent naps but they kept ringing my phone to bother me! This really tired me out physically!! I told them they took $68.28 from my bank account and still didn't send me anything yet as well as the watch they promised, and then they said it should take them 8 to 12 weeks for the magazines and everything to come. WHat?? Since the magazines haven't come yet and they are calling to ask for more EXTRA money already? The supervisor guy named Zac or something like that said the order cannot be cancelled and i asked him why can't it be canceled since you haven't shipped the products to the customer yet. Buy the product, pay for it, but got nothing from the seller. What kind of business is that? Yet they keep calling to bother my sleeps and exhausted me out like that?? I told them I would contact the police and have all my calls monitored because this doesn't make any sense to me and then the supervisor guy said all the calls are now being monitored as well and then I said "well, that's good" and then he said he will go ahead and cancel my order right away for me. LOL. But I figured I want them to pay me back my $68.28 as well, the money isn't big, but it's still some money since I'm still a student and jobless, plus, to me paying a penny to a scam is still a big WASTE!! I would really appreciate it if you take this report into notice and have this taken care of.
