My name is IFTAQAR AHMED and had subscribed for the Readers Digest by paying the subscription for 3 years through Credit Card. From last 2 months I am getting the magazine in the name of one Mr. ANDREWS PAUL ( a/c 1-OO[protected] please look into it and rectify the mistake immediately. After going through the various comments regarding the SWEEPSTAKES I was shocked and really for some I was blind . The entire management of such " internationally reputed magazine " go in for such cheap method of luring the public . One of the commentator has rightly pointed out that, abnormal rates are being quoted for the items you offer to the reader / buyers . You cant simply take us for a ride this is for sure...
i dosent mean a complaint
i got a letter .On that letter written that i had been selected on final stage

what does that letter content means...
Me too is ashamed to inform you that I am an unfortunate participant of readers Digest Sweepstakes[protected] I had participated in it for 1 year and every week I received an envelope containing Readers digest Book Advertisements and sweepstakes documents I spent all my time and read it very care fully filled it and returned by courier for reaching it in there with out delay each documents of sweepstakes I send with courier charge of Rs.50 Every documents of sweepstakes ensured me that I am the winner of the Sweepstakes and a Toyota corolla car will reach at my house within next few days they also send us the invitation card and asked us how many o[censored]s were coming For receiving the prize and also send us a route map of the prize distributing gala reception they always informed that I am the only their loyal customer one of their Golden customer.

In addition the RD is sending REMINDERS with nasty languages that there remains unpaid amount towards items and if I don't pay they will take action against me. But so far my knowledge goes that except their lucrative offer envelopes with chances of winning amount & Toyota I have never received any article for which they have been demanding payment.

Govt to take action against such frauds and threatening.
