United Family Circulation - Ultimate Power Sales - Tuscan Readers Services Scam Moves To So. California Ripoff Buford Georgia

On 12/12/2006 a young man, Westly Payne came knocking. He gave a story of how he is the son of (some lady neighbor who lived around the corner). He was raising money for his baseball team to go to Japan for Nationals. He was very convincing in his story. Gave information about his team at Univ. Calfi. Riverside.

I was reluctant as Christmas was right around the corner and I didn't want to waste money on needless things but he actually made me feel so sorry for him that I agreed to buying one subscription. I paid him my $38- and he assured me I would love the magazine. He even gave a delivery date of no later than 4/20/07.

Just 2 days after this young mans visit a girl around the same age came knocking with the same story but raising money for her soccer team. I actually apologized to her and said she was too late I already ordered from another student at UCR.

Since April I have made about 20 long distance calls to Tuscan Reads Services AKA United Family Circulation. The recording sounds like a real switchboard system however no one ever answers and all calls are routed to mail boxes are that full so that no messages can be left.

It wasn't until today that I finally got fed up enough to look up the magazine to even see if it was a real magazine. It is. I then looked up United Family Circulation to see if their business is real or also a scam. To my surprise I have been dupped.

Needless to say I would like my money back however based on what I have read I won't hold my breathe. I suppose I will take my chances in small claims court.

If anyone has been successful in their recovery efforts, please let me know. I would love to save myself some time in trying to put a stop to these scam artist and collect my money back.
