Okay, 10 years ago while stationed in North Carolina I unwittingly signed a scam magazine contract. I was only 22, cut me some slack. I canceled it after I received the first magazines but now all these years later I receive a call from an attorney demanding $500 for the finance company that provided the financing for the magazines. He's trying to frighten me into paying it, saying I'll owe $4000 if he has to hire an atty in Minnesota (where I now live) and be taken to court. He is in NY. My thought is, NC statue of limitations is 3 years on written contracts. I didn't read the fine print about cancellation, but nonetheless only received one month's magazines. Am I wrong in thinking that the statute has run - no case. The venue would have to be NC, not Minnesota. And more than anything he's blowing smoke to collect a few easy bucks. Any suggestions?
