Default Scam Alert on Woodstrokes & Woodcrafts Magazine offer

This is similar to the scam of sending small businesses invoices for stuff
they never ordered and never received. They depend on the amount being
small enough so that people/companies just pay them. I'd STRONGLY suggest
NOT throwing out the "invoice" but filing a formal complaint with the
Attorney General in your state + the Attorney General in the state of
Oregon. Put scammers where they belong...in prison.

SWMBO was doing the bills this morning and she was going through my
woodworking magazine renewals and showed me a renewal order for

Woodstrokes
and Woodcrafts magazine which looked like an invoice. I had never heard of
the magazine and checked it out on the web and verified it as a legitimate
publication. Their subscription rate is 2 years $29 and the scam offer was
$59 for 2 years.

The firm was called Lake Shore Publishers Service of White City Oregon.
Further investigation has found that they are a slimy operation that has

hit
other magazines ( Popular Woodworking).
