Poetry.com proomised I was an elite poet, sharing space with the likes of Bill Clinton among others. Internet
If I wanted to see my poetry in print all I had to do was send money to poetry.com. Fortunately, I did not fall for this scam and am currently waiting for the final cut, where my poem did not win. But then I wonder if anyone ever does win thiese scams.

League Of American Poets (poetry.com) I paid them for 3 books and they said the check never cleared. I got a run around when I called to get it straightened out. I left a message on the voicemail for the manager but i have not heard back yet. My daughter certainly thought this was an honor to have her poem selected but when the same thing happened to me and my son, we started to get suspicious. I hope these folks go to jail.
