“National Processing Center” Appears to Replace
“American Senior Alliance” in Suspicious Mailing to Seniors
By Tucker Sutherland, editor, SeniorJournal.com
Dec. 14, 2004 – Last month we warned senior
citizens to be
wary of a mailing from the American Senior Alliance that made outlandish
promises of information available about “important Elder Law changes.”
Now, there is a new mailing to seniors with even more promises and the
return address is to the National Processing Center. We are reporting
both to the U.S. Postal Inspectors for investigation.
Editor's Note: A reader contacted us today and
said he just got the old mailing with the old address - so this company
may still be using both.

American Senior Alliance Should Be Viewed With
Caution
Nov. 30, 2004 - SeniorJournal.com has received many
emails concerning a mailing to senior citizens by the American Senior
Alliance, but no one has been able to locate this company, which make
excessively enticing promises in the mailing. We suggest seniors not
respond to the mailing.

The return card to request the free information
asks for the sender’s signature, age, spouse’s age, county and phone
number. Certainly you have to question why a signature is required.
We had suspected the mailing was a scam and this
suspicion is even greater after the name of American Senior Alliance has
been replaced by the National Processing Center in the new mailing. The
new return address is to PMB #220, 325 Pennsylvania Ave., SE,
Washington, DC 20077-1038. We suspect this is a mailing service drop box
that the promoters hope senior citizens will think is a government
service. Although, on the bottom of the card in small print they state,
“Not affiliated with or endorsed by any government agency.” The old
return address was a post office box in Marietta, Georgia.
The postal permit for the return postage on the
original card was issued in Fort Worth, Texas, but the latest one is
from Washington, D.C.
We receive emails from SeniorJournal.com readers
everyday about this mailing. We urge you not to respond until you learn
more about the operation.
Watch for return addresses on the cards to either
the “National Processing Center” or the “American Senior Alliance.”
We urge you, too, to notify the U.S. Postal
Inspectors. For the online report form -
