Last time, they also sent me a key for BMW car. Of course, not the real key. They always state that you are one step ahead to win "lucky draw gift", but provided you purchase their products. The purchase of their "add-on" products never end, and the price of the product also quite expensive.

Anyway, Reader Digest is a nice magazine! Just its distributor marketing way a little bit annoying.

dont subscribe...every month they keep telling u some cash...but in the end nothing...i kena before...

and regarding the subscribe to reader's digest for 12 month, after the 12 month ends, they silently continue potong your credit card for another 12 month..

thats it? the kept on sending me stuffs i dunno... like their own storybook compilation, some other articles, even dictionary then assume i oredi buy it if i dont return it.... then i go open all the packages thought they gave me for free only found out that big chunk of cash kena deduct.

rm148 right? ngah.. I got mine 72hr letter today for 2012 stuff... say im 1% of selangor top ranked finally with a loop hole of "If you win" stuff.. psycho you into think you're so special and such. FYI, they have two payment method, one for subscription (mail) and another golden privilege for a rm160 cook book (email)... urgh.. I just give the no payment letter la after I go to giant...

I emailed them and ask if its a real scam or not and they say its real blah blah la and they 'dont' force you to pay anything but they guilt trip you to look like you lose a lot of stuff for not paying rm200- for their stuff. I think group-on has a better chance to subscribe to RD for rm72 than rm148.

I only read RD in libraries. Magazine too short for me.

I want to believe them.. but I'm too broke to care. I've already spend enough for a new makeup palette anyway.

Thanks for keeping me grounded anyway.

how do they even come up with this !% bull anyway? I'm top 1% based on what exactly? Pftt...If it's too good to be true (and it asks for credit card number) then it's a scam..

I don't know where they got my address too. First was to email me. And I need to buy their so expensive CDs. Then they found my home address. Ignored. Then I change job and they manage to get my name and post to my office too!(I purchased a few online stuff sent to office, mostly those groupons thing) I was about to subscribe Rd ( i thought rm148 was ok. I can read some nice stuff also. Used to read RD in school library) but decided to check if this is scam and thank goodness for this forum... true enough.. Scams!

hush... i dunno what the hell is reader digest. 5 or 6 yrs ago i rented my house to a sarawakian n maybe she had joinned the contest last time. then i moved back to my house few months ago n received reader digest mails today. the mail looked important then i emailed to inform reader digest that the person had moved back to sarawak. do u know what did they reply? "we have updated our record. u may receive few mails from us again". rclxub.gif wahlao ehhh... looks like they r playing around with ppl lar.

I received the letter regarding prize from reader digest. Surprisingly this scam started since 2010 or even earlier.
