i ordered from fragrance,com and from what i am seeing from complaints....I am one of MANY who are now receiving
a magazine that i have not ordered and my personal information has been compromised. I am turning to the BBB
to report this for future investigation.

For the past few weeks I've been receiving People magazine, although I NEVER authorized this subscription! I also made a purchase online from Fragrance,net several months ago. When I called People magazine customer service to complain, they told me that M2 Media Group 'gave' it to me on a complimentary basis and I should call them. I checked online for complaints first on this company before I called them and found this site. I won't be ordering from Fragrance.net again. Hopefully the govt will soon crack down and prosecute these con artists and scammers to the fullest extent of the law that waste thousands of people's time.

M2mediagroup -- are scammers -- see long list of complaints on this site-- I too just received cbswatchmagazine as a result of M2mediagroup suscribing me-- I called mag to cancel but sense I'll need to follow up on this a lot

I also just received a copy of PEOPLE magazine that I never ordered! I ordered from Fragrance.Net just a few weeks back and NEVER did I "Opt In" to subscribe in for any kind of magazine from anywhere!!! All of a sudden I'm told by calling People Customer Service that through a 3rd party group called M2 Media Group I was automatically signed up for magazine subscriptions through my order I placed and I had to remedy this through contacting M2 Media at 866-441-1281. Well try to get through, I challenge you, as it's a run around automated service telling you a number of ways to try to cancel your subscription that you never ordered!!! I think Fragrance.Net should be legally pursued for this fraudulent activity! I WILL CONTINUE TO PURSUE THIS AND WILL MAKE IT PUBLIC IN EVERY WAY FOR THIS COMPANY TO NO LONGER BE ABLE TO OPERATE AND YOU SHOULD TOO!!! Shame on them.

Never ordered People magazine. Ordered off of fragrance.net though, could be why. But I never opted in for a magazine subscription. Let's class action lawsuit fragrance.net! This is highway robbery

I TOO RECEIVED UNWANTED MAILING. THIS WAS THRU MEDIA AS WELL. I BELIEVE FRAGRANCE.NET IS THE GUILTY PARTY. I WILL NEVER ORDER AGAIN FROM FRAGRANCE.NET DUE TO THIS DISHONESTY AND MANIPULATION OF THE INTERNET.

I started receiving Entertainment Weekly about a month ago, a subscription I did not order or pay for, and have no intention of paying for. I could not be less interested in this magazine. I looked up the account that was established in my name by someone, and discovered M2 Media was the source of the subscription. I cancelled with Entertainment Weekly, but have noted a large number of reviews in which people have started receiving magazines they did not order through M2 Media. Please add my complaint to the pile. I will not be honoring any invoices that come my way.

About three weeks ago received invoice from HGTV for me to pay for one year subscription to their magazine. I wrote on invoice “DID NOT SUBSCRIBE TO THIS MAGAZINE”. I asked them to provide proof that I subscribed. Today I received copy of HGTV Magazine with demand for payment. All they said was “You entered our contest and subscribed due to that entry”. Their Contest Rules
specifically state “No Purchase Required”!!! I have read online that this is recent pattern of a SCAM by HGTV.

I ordered a year ago from Fragrancenet.com and was awarded a free subscription to Cosmopolitan Magazine as a bonus. However I just received a renewal for Cosmo magazine with a charge of 17.88. They, according to my bank, charged the account 1 year ago which I did not pickup. When I preceded to cancel on line it stated it was a complimentary subscription. Not so !! Charged in 2016 and 2018. 17.88. This is a scam and should be directed to the proper authorities which I plan to pursue. It will cost me $30.00 to stop payment.

I called Rolling Stone Magazine today because I have been getting mags not subscribed to.They told me when tickets were ordered through Ticket Network they put me down for a free subscription. I do not read,never did read Rolling Stone. They told me to get in touch with M2 media group.. No help.. they dont even respond on the phone.
I would like not to receive them any further. I do not even open them.. I am way passed the interest matter in the magazine.

Just as many of the previous posters, I started receiving unsolicited copies of People a few weeks ago. Rather than go into M2's rats nest of computer and voice menus, I opted for the old snail mail method - I wrote "return to sender" and "unsolicited" on two copies and dropped them off at the Post Office. Yesterday, I received an email from TIME, INC customer service:

"The Post Office recently notified us that mail sent to you at the address below is "undeliverable".
Regrettably, we will need to suspend delivery of your PEOPLE subscription until you verify your address."

Could it really be that easy to block these scams? We'll see, but I now have proof that I tried to stop the subscription if they try to bill me at a future date.

Did not order paid subscription to Sports Illustrated. I want full refund.

I am receiving a People Magazine Subscription that I did not subscribe to. I do not want it at all and refuse to pay for a subscription. How the hell do they get authorization to even send me this??

I have been receiving the Time Magazine and I do not subscribe to any magazine. I contacted them and was informed that it was done through Media Group. I never authorized nor requested service. I truly do not want to keep receiving it. I would like for your company to stop sending this and cancel any sunscription done without my authorization.

From reading other complaints it appears that this resulted from my doing business with Fragrance.com. That will never happen again. I will not do any further business with that company ever.

I have been receiving the INC. magazine and I do not subscribed to anything. I contacted them and was informed that it was done through Media Group. I never authorized nor requested service. I truly do not want to keep receiving it. I would like for your company to stop sending this and cancel any sunscription done without my autorization. If they stole my personal information I will contact the authorities.

I was charged for a subscription to People Magazine and I did NOT authorize it. Refund my money or I will not hesitate to contact the authorities.

frangrancenet.com could be the culpri as I see other complaints when they ordered from them.
Called Rolling Stone Mag and they were very nice. Gave me M2 Media phone #
That is a bunch of voice mails never leading to real customer service..
So used their web to list my complaint.
ThenI found the website for complaint.com. I used the subscrition cancelling and they were right on showing the Rolling stone Mag. BTW I guess I am going to get Vogue,too, so I cancelled that one also. Where is the law when you need them LOL
Hope all this works, cause all this has cost me a total of 2 hrs and I am not 100% sure it is done with.

Received swimsuit issue and now March issue of Sports Illustrated magazine - unsolicited. Called Sports Illustrated. Person said I was signed up by M2Media Group. This person said Sports Illustrated could suspend my 'subscription' delivery for 6 months but it will be re-instated after that. Person gave me "www.cancelmag.com". She said this is the only way to cancel it.

Went to "www.cancelmag.com". Entered the info requested - the site said ". . . You are receiving the magazine as a result of recently making an online purchase with either TicketNetwork.com or TicketLiquidator.com. The magazine was included as a bonus offer with your purchase. . . there are no hidden costs, further obligations, or automatic renewals associated with your subscription. Your credit card information was not passed to us. Would you like to continue to enjoy your magazine?"

I entered "No" to this question and "Yes" to the "Are you sure" follow-up question.

I am receiving Cosmopolitan magazine I didn't order please cancel.

Received Sports Illustrated that I did not order, I called them to see why I received the magazine and was told it was through M2 Media Group Agency, I have made no progress in tracking them down, and as of yet have found no charge to any cards I have, I will cancel the subscription ASAP, how can I be signed up for a magazine without my permission ? I do know at some point SI will try and charge me for their crappy rag of a magazine !

All of a sudden I had a charge card for a magazine renewal. I did not renew from M2Media Group. I do have a subscription to the magazine in question.

I DIDN'T ORDER THESE PEOPLE MAGAZINE. AND DON'T WANT THEM.STOP THEM.CALLED PEOPLE MAGAZINE GAVE THIS NUMBER 1-866-441-1281 WITH NO LUCK IT JUST PLAYED ON AND ON WITHOUT NO ANSWER.STOP THIS JUNK MAIL I DIDN'T ORDER THEM AND DON'T KNOW HOW TO READ!

I ordered from Shoebuy.com last summer. Then copies of Time started mysteriously appearing in the mail. After wasting a bunch of time trying to find out why,I found it was a "bonus " for my purchase. It's next to impossible to get this canceled,the phone for M2 is just a bunch of loops without a live operator. This is totally underhanded and I advised Shoebuy I'd never order from then again. I also advised my credit card company that if a renewal charge from M2 or Time ever comes through that it is to be treated as a fraudulent charge and the proper authority should be notified at once.

Magazines I did NOT subscribe to keep showing up at my door, cluttering my mailbox. 9 of them so far ( Us Weekly, Shape, Cosmopolitan, Better Homes and Gardens, Family Circle, Woman's Day, Family Fun, and Elle). Just went to a couple of the websites for the magazines to try and stop them, and received this message on several: " This subscription was purchased through M2 MEDIA GROUP". I NEVER ONCE subscribed to ANY of these magazines! The only plus side is, as far as I know, I am not being charged for any. But I don't like this trash cluttering up my mailbox all the time.
