Q: Is there a law suit for this (see discription
Apparently this is a huge scam, a young lady came to my door stating that she was selling magazines to earn money for college and the mo0re she sold the more points she would get the more points she got6 she could wijn a trip abroad. I didnt really have the money to spend but I felt bad and she talked me into it she wouldnt take no for an awnser. She came into my home I spent over $70.00 for the hansel and gretel package and $15.00 check for S&H sahe told me she would get mo0re points if I paid that way. (When I trold her that I needed the money for christmas shopping she said I would get it for christmas and that it was a 2 year subcription.) This was on Dec. 11,2010 I still have yet to receive anything. When I looked the company up online it the only thing I can find are many people complaining and that this is a huge scam. what do I do?? This is not right and I nor anyone else deserve to have this happen to them.
A: Save all of your canceled checks and if you do not receive the subscriptions you signed up for in a reasonable amount of time, you should file a complaint with the Florida Attorney General's office. You could also file a lawsuit in small claims court and ask the court to waive the filing fees due to your low income. A local pro bono office might be able to help you. If you are located in South Florida, we will help you.
