Received a voucher in the mail stating that I had won $100.00 gas coupon and that I had to call a number to qualify. Was told by their sales rep that I didn't need to purchase their offer, but that I had to listen to it and regardless of my choice, I'd still get the gas voucher for $100.00 off of any major gas supplier. I listened to their offer and declined the offer. I was told that I had to pay $1.95 to receive a written offer, to which I had 14 days to decline in order to receive the $100 gas voucher(s). I could decline the offer at that point and keep the gas vouchers. They never arrived. I called on day 13 and was then told that the vouchers were "rebates" and in order for them to work I had to be actively enrolled in their magazine scam for several months. That the vouchers/rebates would arrive in $10-$15 segments monthly and that I had to buy gas, send in the receipt and the rebate and would receive a check back in return.
So, their scam is that you need to be enrolled for several months in their promotion, by which time you have paid $600 in full for the magazine scam, in order to receive the rebates monthly for a small amount. After some months you can happily cancel the magazines and pay in full and not receive the 60 months of 5 useless magazines that you signed up for.
It's a scam.
Oh and to get my $1.95 back, I now have to call accounting tomorrow to complain.
So at least they figure most people won't go through that trouble and they ding you that way at least.
