I am also in MS and keep getting calls from this #. I did just cancel my subscription to the Commercial Appeal paper in Memphis.

Recently stopped a newspaper. Not sure what these people really wanted. Waste of my minutes.

I answered and they hung up on me. I'm in Memphis and just cancelled my newspaper subscription. Thanks for the info

It is a scam. I had recently let my newspapaer subscription lapse. This number called me numerous times and I finally answered. They seemed to know all about me (name, when subscription dropped, etc.) They offered me a 1/2 off deal to re-subscribe for a year. Thinking they were legit, I gave my Visa number (I had been using it for years with the Commercial Appeal). Promised delivery would resume in 2 to 3 business days. No paper ever came. Nothing ever was charged to my account so I closed it before they could charge on it.

I also got a call form this place.  However, it was legit for me.  I had let my newspaper subscribtion in the Metro Detorit area lapse. They called to offer me the deal. It was a great price to re-subscribe, so I did it.  Gave my credit card number, and figured i was convered under my credit card company if it wasnt legit.  Worked out fine. They chared my card the $26 and my newspaper arrived again within 2 Sundays.
