thanks for the info they called me today, but i didnt answer. how do you get them to stop if they keep calling.

They're still at it, I just received a call today.  At least I know now who it is.
Thanks...

They called  me at 10am this morning saying that I had one 5 magazines free for 48 months, but said their were others... and then they either hung up or switched lines because they stopped talking to me.  From what I read above it sounds like that's a good thing.  I'll write more if they call again.

Here's who called you

They just called me too.  Apparently I was a "finalist" in a dream come true sweepstakes, because I used a credit or debit card.  I knew it was fake when they said that they would send me "free" magazines for $3.95 a week.  It's a scam.
