The following is a letter I wrote to the Georgia Govenors office of consumer affairs after being ripped off by Palmetto Marketing.

Dear Sir or Madam:

I am writing about an issue with a marketing company in Florida involving door to door magazine sales.

On November 18, 2005 I received a solicitor selling magazines. After I signed up for the magazine I researched the company and found them to be listed in scam sites.

I was unable to contact them by phone so I stopped payment of the check I had given their representative. I considered that to be my right of cancellation.

Specifics of my case:

November 18, 2005 Signed up for magazines.

November 22, 2005 Stopped payment of check (3rd business day)

December 21, 2005 Received first letter from Collection letter requesting $62. Not just the $32 that I had originally signed up for. Palmetto Marketing had never tried to contact me to discuss the issue. They had my name, address and phone number.

December 30, 2005 Sent registered letter to Collection Agency stating that I had found Palmetto Marketing

Listed on scam sites and considered them to be undesirable to do business with and that the check I had written was stopped by me.

January 5, 2006 Received another letter from Collection Agency stating that the matter was being turned over to the State Attorney's Office to be handled by their Worthless Check Division.

January 6, 2006 I contacted Collection Agency. They gave me the number of Palmetto Marketing.

Collection Agency indicated they would put the matter on hold for 30 days and I have to take it up with Palmetto.

I then contacted Palmetto to explain that I did not want to do business with them and I had stopped the check. They told me that since I had not notified them within 3 days that I would have to take it up with the Collection Agency.

I have now contacted the Federal Trade Commission and opened case #7421830.

I am also contacting you (The Governors Office of Consumer Affairs) to ask you for action against Palmetto Marketing Inc. and undesirable business practices.

I have not received any magazines from Palmetto so, they have not fulfilled their obligation and I want no further contact with them. I do not owe them anything.

Please let me know how you will proceed with this case.

Enclosures: 3 letters from Collection Agency and the original contract with Palmetto Marketing and the letter to collection agency from me sent December 30.

Regards,

Stephen
