On December 19, 2023 a guy came to my door claiming to be with an organization called New Beginnings Connection. He was selling magazines. It seemed legitimate and for a good cause. I bought a magazine subscription and wrote a check for $113. It was cashed on 12/22/2023. I have not received any magazines. I called the phone number on my receipt (************) and no one answered. I left a voicemail. I am not able to find anything on the company. When I google the phone number, I see BBB complaints with the same phone number for an organization called Second Start Connection. I either want my money back or my magazines.Initial Complaint

18 NOV 2023 this kid who went by the name **** came to my door telling me I could get 3 magazine subscriptions from this company. It was supposed to be a way for him to get commissions to make some money for himself as part of the 2nd start program. His materials were less than professional and his effort to make a sale was weak but I figured even if it was a scam, he was working pretty hard for the money. I hope it wasn't a scam but I'd like for this company to stand by their business offer. I want my 3 magazines. Attached is the image of **** and of the receipt that **** gave me. I tried contacting the company on the receipt and got no reply.
