I recently got 2 of these on the same day, for American Patchwork and Quilting and Quilt. I threw them away, because I know I renewed these only a few months ago. You're right...they do look legitimate, but since they looked identical to each other, I took a hard look and found they came from a billing company. They hit the trashcan.

thank you for letting us know.
|
wow, I get them all the time. Thanks for this.

Thanks for posting this. Good info to know...I'll keep out a better eye!

One year I didn't check well on one of my son's car magazines and ended up extending his subscription for 4 years. Now days, we really need to watch what we are doing.

i never renew by mail. i only renew by phone. i wait for one of the subscription cards with a code number. if i get one just before my current subscription runs out, i call it in right to the mag phone number, inside the front cover usually, and give them the special offer code number and my credit card number. if you want them to bill you, they will. but you know who you dealt with. i always call mine in a little early, with a code, and they simply attach it to the current subscription. they use the same credit card number and they update the expiration date. i always do it for three years at a time because the savings are a little better.

Yes, cjaye44, it is that one. Mine was a Christmas gift from in-laws but I forget which ones I get myself. Guess that means I need to cut down. It's just annoying to have so much time left on subscription and be hit with "renew", even if it is a great deal.

I got several of those "phony" renewals, and after looking at them carefully, ran them through the shredder. The real renewals come with the magazine, or I use the 800 number.

I am so glad I saw your post today. I just received one of those and I was really confused. I'm glad I didn't sent them any money.
