Because they couldn’t be repaired local ly, he sent them by mail to a company that had been referred to him. They fixed his glasses and returned them to him. A short time later he received an email from the company “salesperson” requesting a tip! (“If you are happy with me as your salesperson and would like to give me a tip, please click on the link below.”) My husband replied, “Can you please send me a receipt? I need it for my records.” She replied, “How much will you tip me?” He said, “Is the only way I can get a receipt for my repairs is if I tip you?” She replied, “Yes, can you give me $5.” I have never heard of an online company soliciting tips before, let alone refus ing to send a receipt unless one is given. How would you respond to this? Getting a receipt is not the important thing here; it’s the solicitation that dumb- founds me! — DUMBFOUNDED IN TINLEY PARK, ILL. DEAR DUMB FOUNDED: Every time I think I have heard every thing, a letter like yours crosses my desk. The word for what that salesperson is attempting is extortion. Your husband should con tact the owner of the com pany that repaired his glasses, tell the person the name of the employee who is trying to extort money and the date it happened, and request the receipt. If it doesn’t arrive posthaste, the company should be report ed to the Better Business Bureau. P.S. Who referred you to that company? That person should also be informed about what has been going on. DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips DEAR ABBY: Ever since my son was a baby (he’s almost 6 now), my husband and I have printed photograph invitations for his birthday parties. We sent the invitations to everyone, including those who lived too far away to attend, so people could have a current picture of him. After reading many of your archives, I realize this may be perceived as a bid for gifts, and I no longer wish to do it. I would still like to send out a picture card of some sort. Any ideas on how to do it with out making anyone think we want gifts? — DON’T WANT TO MAKE WAVES DEAR DON’T: A way to do that would be to send them during the holidays when your friends and rela tives are sending out cards to friends and acquaintanc es. • • • DEAR ABBY: I work the newspaper crossword puzzle every day. I came across an answer recently that stumped me. It was an “abbreviation for bowling lane.” The answer was AMF. I’m asking you what it stands for because I can not get a straight answer. What is so secretive about this logo? Please help. — STUMPED IN TEXAS DEAR STUMPED: The clue may have been mis leading. AMF is a BRAND. It stands for American Machine and Foundry, which many years ago was one of the nation’s largest recreational equip ment companies.
