Progressive Business Publications Fraudulent subscription malvern, Pennsylvania

5th of Jan, 2011 by User790018

Received a "Past Due" invoice for $299 addressed to Accounts Payable even though I never received a first invoice. Invoice was for a subscription to the Nonprofit Board Report and the addressee was one of my employees. She said she answered a "survey" on the phone but did not order anything. Interestingly, we are a for-profit company so the report doesn't even fit our demographic.

I did some checking up on PBP via the internet (including this web site) and found tons of complaints. I wrote PBP a letter telling them to delete the invoice and never try to contact anyone at our company again. I also noted to them that nobody in our company can order a product for more than $100 without a purchase order signed by me or my assistant manager. There was no purchase order, of course. I told them in no uncertain terms that if they send any more invoices or harass me I will report them to the PA BBB and Att General's Office. I sent the letter certified USPS to monitor delivery.

**I'm curious about one thing: if we don't pay this invoice can they trash our credit rating by reporting us as delinquent?
