The Colorado attorney general’s office has filed a lawsuit against 21 magazine sales telemarketing companies accused of deceiving and defrauding consumers across the state and nationwide.
The lawsuit claims the telemarketers contacted consumers who already had subscriptions and pretended to be the company providing the magazines. They are accused of obtaining credit card numbers under false pretenses. Attorney General John Suthers said the telemarketers also are suspected of signing consumers up for magazine subscriptions they had not willingly purchased.
