This group like too many others prints their "offer from an independent agent, not a bill" in tiny letters, and it looks like a legit magazine renewal notice - which they no doubt count on fooling people like my spouse.

I sent their form back (which claimed they were due ANOTHER $24.95, my husband having sent the "first installment" thinking it really WAS his magazine, and I told them to refund this amount at once. Instead they send yet ANOTHER bill!

Another Bill?

AUTHOR: conscious - (USA)

POSTED: Saturday, August 05, 2017

My Dad just recieved the Markeing  material from "APG", It looks like a bill. It comes in an envelope that states "OFFICIAL BUSINESS, penalty ffor private use" in the return address spot. The envelope has a window, otherwise is plain white.

Inside there is a payment envelope addressed to "Customer service" and a PO box # in CO. , There is a paper that looks like a payment ticket from some thing serious like the DMV or city utilities. The lingo makes you think you owe, Ex: "Your Prompt Attention is appreciated" on the  left top in red ink, "Notice on continuation" in red on the right, and 

"Make check Payable to:" In the middle. 

Dad thought it was a bill and got upset. It states that he can pay installment of $89.98. Total amount $179.95

I think if he still had the checkbook he would have tried to pay this "Bill".  Since I came to AZ to take care of him because of his senior mental abilities slipping, I have noticed quite a few companies using different types of questionable strategies to confuse and manipulate elderly people  into giving up $. I feel this is highly selfish and unethical.  Very Wrong. 

We as a society need to come together and respect and care for each other. Then we can evolve in to a better life for all.
