Hashemian Blog Web Tools, Financial Markets, Technology Friday, January 20, 2006 Junk mail come on  If you receive a simple white envelope with the words "EXPLANATION OF BENEFITS" next to the address window, what would you think it is? If you answered "junk mail", you would be absolutely correct. I got such a letter, and I am embarrassed to admit that I was totally fooled. A letter like that would generally indicate a notice from your insurance company, or your employer, or perhaps some plan you might have just enrolled in. A subscription specially reserved for me from Forbes magazine is not exactly what I expected, but that's what I got. I feel so honored to be chosen for this phenomenal offer. It was like winning the lotto jackpot. It was so special, in fact, that I filed it with the rest of my important letters in my ultra sensitive document holder, the waste basket. Serves me right for being so naïve. junk mail,forbes,magazines <Junk mail come on> // posted by rh 1 comments | 1 Comments: By  Anonymous, at 5/2/08 2:53 PM   I handle all the financial and medical affairs for my elderly mother, so I didn't think twice about opening an envelope marked "Explanation of Benefits" that I received yesterday. Instead of being a legitimate statement of insurance benefits, however, it was a come-on from the Arthritis Foundation. I'm disgusted that an otherwise worthy organization would stoop to such deceptions that blatantly target seniors. It's shameful! Post a Comment
