Anonymous Posted at 7:54 pm on Dec. 15, 2008 That was a best buy scam where they told you to get free issues.  for some reason, they kept on sending me more issues.  I had no way of contacting them to get them to stop sending me magazines.  Now they must have gotten to my bank. Can I contact the Better Business Bureau over this? Anonymous Posted at 7:51 pm on Dec. 15, 2008 Quote: from CoolGirlChrissi at 7:50 pm on Dec. 15, 2008 sports illustrated That's what it is?

Look into it and see if your identity was stolen. There may be nothing you can do though... sorry. All 8 previous replies displayed.
