International Society Of Poets ripoff Internet

I have received an email regarding my nomination as Poet of the Year for 2004 from Steve Michaels @ poetry .com. Telling me that I would formally be inducted as an International Poet of Meret and Honored member of their Society. Also that 2 poems would be published in their Winter of 2004 book of poetry and one in February of 2004.

They have also told me that I would receive The Poetry Silver Award Cup engraved with my name. They are asking $595.00 full Convention Registration fee for Poets. Using names like Bob Eubanks name, the Shangri-Las and Marvelettes for entertainment.

I have read some of the rip-off reports regarding their convention in 2002 and was wondering if that ever took place and if they indeed do what they say they will. Thank you.
