By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:
I. How We Work in Washington. Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services. APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.
III. When We Tour. APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity for 20 or more residents.
IV. No Obligation or Commitment. You have no obligation to use or to continue to use our services. Because you pay no fee to us, you will never need to ask for a refund.

MJ1929, I'm going to check out that disconnected number.
Isn't it unfortunate that anyone really has to find ways to deal with these offensive unwanted calls? It's too bad that these scammers don't make efforts to find legitimate work.
Here are other ways to get off junk mail lists: (https://www.ecocycle.org/junkmail) I've used the site (http://www.optoutprescreen.com) to get off credit card offer lists, and boy, did those stop almost overnight.
I like your idea of sending a bill to the mailers. It doesn't work, but it's satifying. I've done that twice with doctors who kept me waiting way past my appointment times. One doctor was horrified and never did it again (a good guy in my book), but the other still does it to her patients and has become notorious in our area because of it. Neither ever paid me, though. :-)
I'm glad you send back your deceased boss' political mail. When I did get offensive mail and FedEx return envelopes, I also sent them back, filled with junk mail that I got. Share the junk was my motto.
Broadway Joe - what a great moniker! He and that other dude, attractive, dark hair, but I can't remember his name...they're both nuisances. He pushes reverse mortgages, as if someone who presumably made big bucks as a movie star would be in a situation similar to that of folks who really do need financial help.
Anytime I get a large political package address to my boss I would see red. It is the same people who convinced my boss through whatever media he as listening/watching that the covid was a hoax, etc. And my boss believed it. Sadly he died from covid in May of last year.
Those political packages return envelopes are those expensive pre-paid FedEx envelopes. I would put in the material that was sent and in large red letters would write MR______ DIED FROM COVID BECAUSE ____________________. I still tremble whenever one of those envelopes show up in my mailbox.
So far Broadway Joe hasn't seen the inside of my mailbox, but we see him in those Medicare ads on TV. Is Joe so hard up he needs to do those types of commercials?
