newsXpress members highly sought after by The Lucky Charm

Small newsagency marketing group The Lucky Charm appears obsessed about newsXpress and its members as evidenced by yet another spam email campaign sent from them to newsXpress members.

Rather than serving other newsagents with valuable insights that help the channel, TLC spams newsXpress members with a claim that members are enjoying double-digit growth. The numbers presented cannot be verified.

Tired of the TLS spam, newsXpress members mock their communication in private discussion as desperate communications from a group struggling to grow to be big enough to make a difference.
