Reader digest is cheating everyone with the prize letters.
Anyone replying to the prize mails will have to buy books which are useless. The prize letters will have one line mentioned in somewhere in the pile of pages received. Once you reply to any of the letters you will get a gift of some useless object and a book. You will continue to receive these kind of gifts for many months and there will be follow up letter which says you have to pay the due amount. The money will gradually raise and they will respond with harsh followup letters if you don't pay the amount. In the end you will end up paying a huge sum of money over months and you will know that you will never get the lakhs or cars

Never fall for readers digest and I suggest you go for better magazines with good standards.
In my experience Reader digest follows a third rate business tactics which is not even followed by telemarketers.

Respected Sir,

Mr. J. Mathew Sir this Miss C. Mellita Jeyashree. For your kind information. I am no more Mrs. Mellita Jeyashree as i have got divorced from my husband. So i kindly request you to send all my two year money as cash or cheque leaf and the gifts you regard to give me please give it to any orphanage home or old age home instead of giving me. It will be very useful for them. So i again request you not to send any of your sweepstakes committee 's letters, any official corresspondence or any other of your Reader's Digest informations.Please don't send it to my address.
