RE: Fwd: Need Help Against Unethical California Software

We too have been receiving these odd invoices.  We did an evaluation of 
the sw several years ago, but never purchased it. Last year we received an 
invoice and tried to inquire as to the purpose of the invoice. (It is 
difficult when the invoice provides only an address to mail the payment 
to-no other contact information).  We finally placed it in a file with a 
note of no authorization to pay.  Today we received another invoice, we 
will save the time and just add it to the file.
I figure if they ever decide to pursue the matter they can explain to me 
what the invoice is for (rather than a generic "maintenance").
But most maintenance contracts are of a nature that if I don't pay the 
fee, I don't receive the service.  I suppose we could always write cancel 
on the invoice and return it, but why bother.
