Progressive Business Publications Newsletter Scam Malvern Pennsylvania

Progressive Business Publications is a scam artist company. I work for a non-profit agency and apparently PBP called and spoke with our grants writer. They obtained her DOB with a free trial offer to a fund raising newsletter. However, our organization never received any confirmation email or letter documenting that we agreed to a free trial offer. This was last year in July that we received a free August issue of their newsletter. We received what looked like an invoice from them in October stating that we owed them $240 dollars for their newsletter. Assuming this was like all the other JUNK offers our organization receives in the mail we ignored the offer. This year we received a letter from the collection agency that PBP works with stating that our account was past due for five months and that we owed $240 dollars.

Seeing as how we NEVER, EVER ordered anything from PBP we are fighting this ridicules and fraudulent charge. We did some research on this company and have found that we are not the only organizations out there that have been sucked into PBP's scam. I hope that others see this and become aware that there are companies out there that will do anything and I mean ANYTHING to make money. Be careful who you talk to over the phone and be aware that NOTHING is free.
