International Library of Poetry ripoff consumer fraud false promises
The following is yet another example of someone trying to take advantage of someones creativity.
Here is something that effects me personnally, I contacted Montel Williams Show w/o a response back. The Florida symposium used his name and likeness to further try to secure your going on the trip. This seems more like a scheme by the travel industry. Every 5 months or so I am awarded this prize but I have yet to receive a thing. I have been Poet of the year two years straight. Has anyone actually received their prize? You write the poems and they want you to purchase items that will showcase what you have signed on to be copywritten by them.

Dear Robin,
It's my pleasure to inform you that you've been invited to present your poetry and receive the International Poet of Merit Award at Poetry.com and The International Society of Poets' Spring Convention and Symposium (our 12th convention) to be held March 1-3, 2002, at the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida.

Dear Robin,
Because you requested that we notify you of important poetic events, I am delighted to inform you that in just a few weeks, we will be honoring your poetic accomplishments at poetry.com's and the International Society of Poets' Summer Convention and Symposium, to be held at the Washington Hilton in Washington, D.C. from August 23-25, 2002.
When you attend the Convention and Symposium, you will present your poetry in front of your fellow poets from around the world (Our last convention was celebrated by over 2500 poets from 58 countries worldwide!), and you will be presented with your International Poet of Merit Silver Award Bowl.
The Award is a magnificent work of art (a $175.00 value) that measures over 10 inches across and over 10 inches high, handcrafted in silver, with your name custom-engraved on a beautiful cherry wood base (see it here). I'm sure it will merit a special place of pride in your home. Your award is so large and heavy that you may wish to bring an extra suitcase to carry it home!
Our Conventions routinely sell out, and this event will be no exception. Please RSVP as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. To register now, click here, or go to http://www.XXxxxxxxxxxxxxxX
We look forward to seeing you!
Steve Michaels
Convention Awards Chairperson
