THERE ARE REPORTEDLY PEOPLE SELLING BOGUS MAGAZINE SUBSCRIPTIONS IN THE LIVE OAK AREA OF SANTA CRUZ. IN AT LEAST 1 CASE A WOMAN (WHO WAS GOING DOOR-TO-DOOR) SAID SHE WAS SELLING THE SUBSCRIPTIONS, SO SHE COULD EARN POINTS TOWARD A PRIZE (THAT WOULD HELP HER GO TO CHEF’S SCHOOL). WHEN THE company SHE WORKED FOR (INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR SERVICE) WAS CHECKED OUT, IT WAS DISCOVERED IT WAS A FRAUD THAT “SELLS MAGAZINES” (THAT PURCHASERS NEVER RECEIVE).
