They called me and told me I was selected for South Carolina to be entered for a drawing for $50,000 becuse of my Visa card. I was told I was going to be getting four (4) magazines for (4)four years at no cost to me. I was also going to be getting a diamond watch at no cost to me. I was also going to be getting a weekly computer magazine, and that that was the one they wanted my help with. It would be around three dollars a week, for (4) four years.

She told me I was going to be getting a list of magazines so I could change them anytime I wanted, and with papers to sign, of which I have gotten none. Then she had me stay on the line for her supervisor so I could tell her how nice she was. But all the other lady really wanted was my credit card number, and told me I was also going to be getting another magazine for to years at no cost to me. She also told me isntead of 12 dollars a month for four years, they were going to charge 70 dollars a month for one (1) year. Ever since I have been getting four or five calls a day for information.

I refused to talk to them the last time they called, and told them I was not talking to anybody, and not to call my house again. I immediately reported my card as lost, after ripping it up, and had my phone number changed.

DO Not do any business with them. They are a rip off.

Check this out I worked for 4 days there and also a week for training they teach you how to make people think they won something and etc.

They told us to speak out of the phone when answering questions about payment and distract people away from questions like that.They want to send mags and bill for all those mags all at once from your credit card but they tell you they will only do so much per month like 4.20?

They record the part where you say you accept conditions and use it so they can collect these high fees when all you were actually agreeing to were small monthly payments.

The real kicker is they actually have different names they use different ones in different centers they also call them selves "American Marketing Services" they are on highway 92 in woodstock Ga and the owner of that center is a Woman named Kris.Call after 2pm and say you are returning her call.

Its in the phone book.I am sick with them because I didnt get my paycheck and they used the excuse that they had reason to believe someone else had stolen it and had to trace it.

I have been waiting three weeks and its a waste of time but thank God I have been blessed with a real job.I quit because I felt real sorry for an elderly woman who was on chemo and bedridden and said she needed something to pass the time. She and I made small talk and when I used the script part about "maybe she could be our sweepstakes winner" and she said "well maybe then I could afford my prescriptions" I hung up on the lady and walked out of that office and one of the management said he knew from the start Id be a quitter.

But screw all of them heres how to screw them up give them fake telephone numbers as "referral customers" they operate on automatic dialers and if they reach enough wrong numbers the computer system crashes in a big way ...big enough to send all the telemarketers home 2 days in a row. It also made them lose alot of files.

I hope all of you just stick to only buying from Girlscouts because my daughter is one and I promise we arent conning anyone on the cookie deal.

The best thing you can do is pray for your enemies,learn a lesson,dont waste time being bitter,chalk it up to the game and pray that God blesses and keeps us safe from harm because far worse happens every day.Practice acts of kindness and give to charities like toys for tots because I only tried to work there for extra Christmas money for my children and they advertise that they are a great place for busy Moms to work.
