A nice young man came to my door selling magazines for a trip to Europe, said he was our narighbors son from the street behind us. He said that his dad told him to offer to wash cars, his mom said people need another magazine like they need another hole in their head. So his mom came up with the bright idea to have all buyers donate their magazine to a soldier in Iraq. Well that there just sold me, how could I say no to that. For some reason I had a weird feeling about this and searched the internet and saw these other posts and have now figured out that I've been had as well. I searched for a phone number to call United Circulation, I have tried and tried and NO ONE answers the number. Live and learn, I will not purchase anything at the door again!!!

A young man Came to our door using the name Nate Wing he said he was our new neighbor from a few houses down and that he was selling magazine subscriptions to pay for a school trip to learn about broadcast journalism. I asked him what's your moms name and he said Tammy, my wife was in the other room and she overheard the conversation. My wife said I just met the neighbor yesterday and her name is Karen, he said oh thats my aunt we are living with her for awhile. He acted very strange the whole time. I agreed to buy a subscription from him for $42 which seemed like alot but it was for charity. He told me if I didn't want the magazine and just wanted to donate the money. He was sending the magazines to his brother over in Iraq who was a winner of the Purple Heart.

It took about 5 minutes after he left to realize that I was ripped off, I went up the street and asked Karen if she knew Nate Wing she said no I've never heard of him, and that she lived alone not with a sister.

I looked at the receipt and It said that the salesman is an independent contractor
and that the company is not affiliated with students, schools, fundraisers or charities.

This is one of the businesses that you see advertised on the side of the road "make $500/week"

after googling what happened to me I saw other people where scammed with the same script that was used on me

I found him later today and got my check back just as an old lady was writing him a check. I told him if you want to sell magazine subscriptions thats fine but don't tell me your my new neighbor, and that its a school fundraiser and your brother won the purple heart.
