iTunes Store E-book Credit Enclosed email Regarding email - iTunes Store E-book Credit Enclosed from administrator at qgemail If any of you received this email yesterday or today and you have purchased E-books from the apple or Amazon store (2011-2012) it is legitimate (at least as of right now - probably be some malware copycats before long) . . . BUT It is really a sad reflection of Corporate greed in the way they are processing these claims. They know who bought books and they could easily have just credited the accounts but instead they dreamed up this method. Here is my fly on the wall interpretation of the Corporate meeting after the verdict. ************************************* What should have happened - CEO - The verdict has been announced, We lost the lawsuit filed against us, and it is cheaper to settle than to continue litigation. So what do we do now? BMWEAM* - We should immediately send store credit or offer cash refund to everyone who was affected CEO - Make it happen! * note: BMWEAMs do not really exist but it would be great if they did (Board Member with Ethics and Morals) ************************************** What really happened - CEO - The verdict has been announced, We lost the lawsuit filed against us, and it is cheaper to settle than to continue litigation. So what do we do now? BMWEAM* - We should immediately send store credit or offer cash refund to everyone who was affected Entire Room - (30 seconds of hysterical laughter and pounding the boardroom table) CEO - No, seriously now, What do we do next to contain costs on this? HeadWeaselyCorpOfficer - Make it as hard as possible to make a claim CEO - Suggestions? HeadWeaselyCorpOfficer - Hire an outside emailer to send the settlement messages and claim info. - (Makes it look suspicious as it is NOT coming directly from Bookseller.) Require user to click on a link to an unknown website and then log in to their account in order to get the refund. Just think how many people will be afraid the email is spam or malware and be afraid to click on the link. Ca-Ching! Less claims! CEO - Brilliant! Make it happen! ************************************* It is sad they make you - Open an unknown(always potentially dangerous) email. Click on an unknown(always potentially dangerous) website. Redirect you to a login page and ask you to log in. If you received a similar email and just blindly clicked on it . . . shame on you! Always google the header of an unknown email and put the word malware after it. If it is a bad email, there will be many articles describing what is bad about it
