Practice Pinna Baby Grand sq As is $14G The Better Business Bureau of Metropolitan New York has warn­ ed area residents to be on the lookout for phony Christmas bo­ nus “checks" which are being mailed by a Brooklyn furniture firm to promote the sale of mer­ chandise. The BBB revealed that the en­ velopes containing the checks are almost Identical to the brown manila envelopes used for mail­ ing authentic government checks. In bold capital letters, the en­ velope’s return address states /’Treasury Division.” On the next line, in letters about one - fifth as large appears the name of a credit corporation. Envelope Opened When the envelope is opened, the check Is seen to be a "Christ­ mas Bonus Check" made out to the recipient in the amount of $50, simulating the kind of raised type produced by a checkwriter machine. The check contains the statement that it is good until December 28. 1963. When examined closely, small­ er, less obtrusive lettering states that the $50 check can only be ap­ plied toward the purchase of $500 worth of furniture from the spec­ ified furniture store. If leas mer­ chandise is going to be purchas­ ed, the value of the check drops on a sliding scale: $40 against the purchase of $400 worth of merchandise, $30 for $300 worth Investigations of similar promo­ tions by the Better Business Bu­ reau have Invariably shown that such credit checks are worth­ less. Prices are either raised to compensate for the promotion or it is found that a consumer can get the sanye merchandise with or without the "bonus check."
