Caller: Community Awareness Magazine.Yes they are Suspect ! They called me twice in the last two weeks and claimed I agreed to advertise with them in February of this year. Demanding payment for two ads at $550 each. When I pointed out I didn't start this business till August of this year the woman just hung up. I searched and found they also are called Apex Advertising, Community Awareness Magazine Pty Ltd, Power Publications, Youth and Community News, Drug Education Guide, Childrens Health Forum, 1300 478 655, 075539452, JRT Agencies, Awareness Childrens Safety Handbook, Volunteer Rescue Newsletter etc

Caller: Emma 0420 227 525Emma called regarding an ad we allegedly agreed to back in Nov 23 for Community Awareness Magazine. They use that tact because you won't recall straight away given the time lapsed. I told her I have no idea what she's talking about and she confidently said, oh yes, we discussed it backin November. I'm like nah, that's not right but here I am still talking to her. She tricked me into giving her my d.o.b. as a reference, although I wondered what my d.o.b had to do with anything. I'm too slow dammit!! I guess the only positive is that she didn't get any cc details although she tried. Can't wait to see how they'll use my info :( At least they don't have my private phone number or email address. People are despicable.

I have been called repeatedly by Community Awareness Magazine, National Crime Prevention, Emergency Rescue journal, Health & Safety etc etc. As with previous comments here, the story is always the same.."we called you in September last year and you agreed to advertise with us...your advertisement is already printed..". Unless they can quote a reference that you can identify, don't give them anything. I am sick of getting constantly harassed by these people and I will be taking it further to make sure they stop.

Caller: Someone from Children's Safety, Youth and Community NewsAfter initially agreeing to a one off advertisement in the Children's Youth & Community News (Apex Advertising) our business has since been charged for advertising we've not agreed to & haven't received any invoice for. Their phone diverts to voice mail & the address is a post box number on the Isle of Capri, Gold Coast, avoid!

Caller: ANNA & EMMA Community Awareness Magazine.Called me and said I booked an Ad in Feb this year and emailed me an invoice for $550 I had no idea who they were and could not remember speaking to them at all! They called me twice in the last two weeks and claimed I agreed to advertise with them and saying it was definitely me they were speaking with because they remembered my name, they asked for correct spelling of my last name and for my DOB and before my brain caught up a gave it to them. Following that call I received an invoice via email and the second I opened it they called requesting a card payment. I stated I did not agree and that our business was closing in a months' time to which they responded the magazine was already printed so it have to be paid but they could give me a discount. I found this thread and replied to their email with the link and politely stating I would not be defrauded and further contact from them would result in police action, and I have not heard from them since. DO YOUR RESEARCH BEFORE YOUR GIVE ANY INFORMATION AND WHATEVER YOU DO NEVER GIVE THEM CARD DETAILS!

Phone number is on paperwork for Awareness of Children's Safety and Youth and Community News both with different PO Boxes and Ascot Publishing is noted on the paperwork. These are scams. They all call saying you agreed to advertising in their magazine, state you gave them a password and your credit card details. Pay today and you get the discount.
