National Magazine Exchange RIPOFF Ex-employee worked there 8 days! CLEARWATER Florida

Just thought that I would let you guys know that if you fall for this pitch, the free watches with the real diamond;) at the twelve-o-clock setting have a "street" value of $2.99 if you even get them.

The $40 gas rebate that is offered is only available in $10 increments and can only be used once a month. $10 for 4 months in a row. Wow! Can't dare tell you that on the phone though.

I don't know how many people would say "well at least I know I will get to fill up my car one time for free." I would have to put out a fake laugh and say "thats right! Gasoline is so high right now" Even though I knew it was total bullsh**. Talk about going home after work and not feeling good about yourself!

These "special" gifts are given to you for "free" and all that you have to do is let us charge your credit card $267.00

Not only that but you will also be billed for a system call Connections that cost $9.95 a month. Hopefully you won't spot that one on your credit card statement for a couple months and when you do then you have to fight to have it removed.

Maybe that's why I only lasted 8 days. Basically it's go to work, listen to some horrible team rally speach by a freak mangager and then talk some people into buying some magazines that aren't doing well at the news stand. It's sick to sign up an 87 year old woman with a 48 month subscription. I was told that the elderly are the easiest. "Just tell them we have magazines like Prevention and Diabetic Cooking." The magazines (if you even get them) can take up to 3 months to receive.

If you get the letter with the Pat Haines non-sense on it go ahead and call and enter. I don't know if the contest is real or not but it's worth a shot. Once you hear the "hook" line of 'what would you do with a million dollars.' Just HANG UP!

Some people would ask when the drawing is and I would have to say "on or about Dec. 31" If the "mark" asked why the "about" part of it, I was told to say that sometimes there are hurricanes in Florida and the drawing might have to wait a couple days. Hurricanes in DECEMBER? Get real! This was a red flag to me that the contest doesn't even exist.

Good Riddance
