Jesse Jones investigates mailers called ‘deceptive as all-get-out’

Magazine mailer are being sent to local residents asking for $200.

It looks like a bill – but it’s not.

Washington Attorney General Bob Ferguson called it “deceptive as all-get-out.” He said it’s unlawful, and people can't do it.

Jesse Jones found a case where the mailer was sent to a 100-year-old woman with Alzheimer’s asking her to pay double for a subscription.

Small print. Big money. A huge national issue.

Now that Jesse brought it to the attention of investigators, the feds are involved.
