ACPA 355 INDUSTRIAL CIR WHITE CITY OR 97503-1096Each of these mailings said that my subscription to Time or to US News & World Report, or some similar general-interest magazine, was about to expire, and that it was time to renew my subscription. They even provided a handy renewal form. All well and good, except that I had never subscribed to any of these magazines.
PUBLISHER'S PROCESSING SERVICE, INC P. O. BOX 60116 CHICAGO IL 60660-0116sent mailings to me which were identical in content (even down to the typeface and layout) to the mailings of ACPA. I have no idea how or even if Publisher's Processing Service is connected to ACPA, but I determined, again in my sole judgement, that the mailings of Publisher's Processing Service were also erotically arousing or sexually provocative, and were therefore also pandering advertisements. Accordingly I have applied for a Prohibitory Order against Publisher's Processing Service.
PUBLISHERS BILLING SERVICES, INC P. O. BOX 58600 SALT LAKE CITY UT 84158-0600sent identical mailings to me. I also determined, again in my sole judgement, that the mailings of Publishers Billing Services were also erotically arousing or sexually provocative, and were therefore also pandering advertisements. Accordingly I have also applied for a Prohibitory Order against Publishers Billing Services. The USPS issued Prohibitory Order Number
