Hi, I live in North Carolina
My problem is that I got a phone call one day from a company that said I won a gold watch. Now she went through all of these details about all I had to do was get this subscription for 3.36 a week. Naturally I said yes because I thought I actually won something. When they sent me papers to receive the watch the total came to 645.08. I decided that it was too much, so I called and wanted to cancel, but they said that they had already ordered it and they would take me to court if I didn't pay for it.
Here's the kicker. I am under 18, so am I liable to pay it? When they called me I did say I was over 18 because I really wanted to get the so called "prize." I heard somewhere that a contract is void if the person is under 18. Is this true?
