[Resolved]  India Today Group, Living Media India Ltd, Reader's Digest — Fraudulent V.P.P o[censored]nsolicited Book from above group in New delhi

Living media India — VPP of books

I just got a VPP thro the post office and hv asked me to pay 603 Rs. agst the same inspite of me not ordering anything from them.

Even I received a similar REGD. VPP today(21/10/10). The packet was posted at SRT NAGAR by LIVING MEDIA INDIA LTD and the Amount was Rs 472 including Post Office commission. Fortunately i wasn't at home when the postman came and left the receipt.
After reading your post don't think there is a need from me to go to the post office. Thank you so much for posting it.

I never ordered any such thing so this definitely appears to be a fraud being run by someone.

I have also received a similar VPP from Living Media New Delhi and the amount requiired to be paid is Rs. 472/-. The post man has given it in my office saying to collect the same from post office by paying Rs. 472/. I don't think I have ordered any such thing in favour of Living Media Delhi so I have not yet collected the same. Thank you for posting the same in internet it will help the others like me to be safe from frauds.

I have received registered VPP packet today i.e. 05-01-11 without any order. It was posted at the SRT Nagar PO, the above group from their Office LIVING MEDIA INDIA LTD. SHOP NO. 119, ANARKALI COMPLEX, JHANDEWALAN EXTN, NEW DELHI 110055. The Packet was in favour of me and I was not present so my wife accepted the parcel and paid 472/- to the postal guy. My wife though this could be an important parcel so she accepted.

I never subscribed any Reders' Digest. This is the FRAUD. Plsease Be AWARE.

Beware of REDERS DIGEST FRAUD

I paid ammount of Rs 2500 for a book and reebok shoe last month by DD.by i hav no reply yet.Please send my gifts quickly.my contact number is [protected].my address is R.MURALI, 298 HARVEYPATTI, THIRUPPARAKUNDRAM, MADURAI-05.TAMILNADU.625005

Quite unfortunate. I am also a victim of this scandal.

This is totally absurd that The India Today group has resorted to such cheap gimmics to cheat its customers. What was delivered, with a registered VPP demanding Rs.472 including Post Office commission was totally unsolicited!! What we have subscribed to is only the Reader's Digest monthly from them, for which we have already paid.

As mentioned on the unsolicited package, "I[censored]ndelivered, please return to : Living Media India Ltd., Shop No.:164, Anarkali Complex, Jhandewalan Extn., New Delhi-110055"

I urge the consumer forum to please take some action on this scandal.

Thanks and regards,
