American Senior Alliance Mailer Should Be Viewed With Caution

By Tucker Sutherland, editor

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.

Below is a copy of the card this organization is mailing. The return address is at the bottom of this page. The return card asks for personal information, including age, spouse's age, a phone number and your county.

We are highly suspicious of this mailing, which obviously wants the targeted recipient's phone number to make a sales call of some sort.

Any other information will also be appreciated.

Below are a few of the emails we have received.

Emails About American Senior Alliance

We received a "request for information" form.  They have our address and want our ages, phone number and county.  They offer to send the "2004 Elder Law Update".  Some of their claims appear to be contradictory to our understanding of federal law.


My father recieved a mailing entitled "2004 ELDER LAW UPDATE".  There is a reply card attached to request information that is to be mailed to American Senior Alliance at a PO Box in Marietta, GA. 

Looked fishy to me, especially since the person requesting the information had to sign the reply card.  Your web site came up when I did a search for American Senior Alliance.  I have attached a copy of both sides of this mailing.  As I said, looked fishy to me.  Hope this will help someone get information about this organization.


My mother received one of their letters and i have not been able to locate them either.


Here's what I got in the mail today.  This 2004 ELDER LAW UPDATE  sounds to good to be true. I did not send in the request as I don't believe that legislation was passed.


My husband received a Request for Information form from this organization. e would be happy to fax a copy to you if you need to see what they are ailing out.

We too were unable to find anything on the internet regarding them, nohing.

Their form requests a signature, my husband’s age, my age, phone number and a county.


Do you have anymore information about this organization or have a sample of their mailings?

My husband received a mailer from American Senior Alliance last week.

The mailer indicated that Congress has passed legislation that standardizes
entitlement provisions for people 65 and over. It listed 3 specific enefits.  We would like to know more about this legislation, if true.

Since your website indicates American Senior Alliance may be a fraudulent
company, could you tell us where we could learn more about the above
mentioned legislation? Thank you for your help.
