This book company called this scam a "contest". I bit and sent (e-mail) a picture of my cat. I was congratulated a few weeks later and told my cat had been selected to appear in their book, "The Most Adorable Pets in America" - 2011 edition. Then they wanted me to pay $59.95 (discounted) for a copy. Can they use my pet's picture without either giving me a copy of the book since I "won" in their contest or getting my explicit permission to use it? What a low-down outfit this must be.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
I fell for it at first. I entered the contest by sending my pet's picture. Then they sent me an email telling me I had won but to confirm i had to give them my cell phone number along with a payment ( I am not sure how much exactly but it was either 15$ or 20$). I was not going to give them my info much less any money. I do not have a cell phone anyways so i just cancelled the whole thing, yet they disregard that i had not fulfilled all the criteria needed to be a participant. They still bug me with my pet having won and being in the book. Just that in itself proved to me that this was just a scam. I just cannot understand that this has been going on for more then one year ( since i got bugged for the 2012 issue while other people here are talking about a 2011 one).
I have the same problem. I put a pic of my Pit Bull Angel and it keeps telling me that her pic is suppose to go in a book .. This is a scam. What if i see my dogs pic out there .. and it's my pic... can i sue them? Grrr!
I also entered this and I did pay the $19.95 for the book. The book was delivered last week and it is ok. I was a little disappointed with the size of the pictures. There are 4 pictures on the top half of the pageand the bottom is left open for anyone's comments about their pets. Even though the pictures are small both of my boys are in there and it is on my coffee table for other people to see. I actually like it. I would not have paid $70 for it but I believe it was worth the $39.95 that I paid. I will keep this book forever along with all the other pictures I have of them. The book is a hard cover and actually very nice. Like I said I just wish the pictures were a little larger.
I too sent a pic of my little pom dog and I too got a letter to buy the book, wasn't sure there wasa book so I didn't mail in for it so I decided to look up the book today just to see if I could find it and see if my baby was in the book and I found this article. My candy meant the world to me and my husband and would love to know others thought so too she is gone now so sure would like to purchase the book even with the high cost and yes we do need a better price or discount if our pets are featured!
