Other - Business & Finance - August 2007

Well i was called around in late June this year by some person claiming to be an employe from a company called American Choice Readers Service and proceeded to tell me that i'm being rewarded for having good credit in a country that is in bad debt and they wanted to reward me for being so. In the reward program they promised me a $1000 online shopping spree, and a magazine subscription that they would pay for, and i just had to pay for shipping and handling, i would pay $58.74 a month for the next 16 months. It all sounded good to me, and being gullible, i accepted, i gave them my checking account number and all the info they needed. following weeks i would get a oder confirmation letter and everything. then one night i was talking to one of my friends about it and told me its all one big scam. to speed things up, today i called them and told them i wanted to cancel my account, though they told me that wasnt possible because i failed to do so in 30 days of sign up. What can i do! Who?

I'm really new at this. I'm in the process of obtaining a patent for an invention. I'd rather not say what the invention is. Anywho, once I get it, how do I work this thing? If I want to sell the idea, who in retail circuits do I contact? If I wanted to sell to K-Mart of Target or whomever, what is the title of the person I should seek?

Like on the commercial with the elephant, where he just holds the little keychain card up to the machine?

Is it better or worse than regular credit card? Tell your experiences.

I received this chain letter in my mailbox:

Dear Friend,
Greetings: I am a retired attorney. A few years ago a man came to me with a letter. He asked me to verify the fact that this was legal to do. I told him I would review it and get back to him. When I first red the letter my client brought me, I thought it was some "off-the-wall" idea to make money. A week and a half later we met in my office to discuss the issue. I told him the letter he originally brought me was not 100% legal. My client then asked me to later it to make it perfectly legal. I asked him to make one small change in the letter.

It goes on for another 2 pages about how if you send $1 to the 6 names on the list & you will make $800,000.00 in just 3 months. You pay for a list of names to send letters to. I KNOW this is a scam.... OR IS IT?!? Has anyone done this and can honestly say "I lost money" or "I gained money"?

I'm conflicted on not knowing what to do with this, either throw it away or actually send it out?!

Where to find information that tells the value of present verses old money?
I am trying to see how many of the present day's dollars it would take to equal one of 1875's. I don't want a simple answer; ie. $134.00 . I want the actual web site where I can look it up.

I'm not interest in any other information.

One of the local banks has changed it name like four times in the last 2 years. They went from Northeast Savings, to Shawmut to some company that had a blue clipper ship for a logo (I can't remember the name right now) to the current company. Doesn't make one feel too secure in doing business with them. What's going on in the banking business?
