I am somewhat out of date from the work force since I am retired, but when I was a business owner in Houston, this was one of the hottest type scams going. It was difficult if not impossible to trace, but many businesses in Houston got burned with this. My first instinct would be to toss it into the old "x" file or whatever we are calling discards today.

If we don't like it send it back and pay nothing. If we do, pay the invoice. When I asked for contact information I was told it would be in the box. I, of course, refused their offer. Is anyone else aware of this scam...uhm offer? What other companies are offering the same offer? Next time I talk to them I would like to be able to say. Sorry, Sir, after consultation with other libraries I do not feel that you offer is not in our best interest.
