Deceptive Credit Cards and Companies

April 29, 2006

There is another credit card scam going around and this one comes directly from the company. First it’s not actually a credit card that can be used to purchase anything you want. You can only purchase items from the companies catalog.

Second, it comes unsolicited to your home and tells you in the same line to call and activate the card AND to call and cancel. If it’s not activated why are you calling to cancel?

The wording in the papers sent to you are very confusing and many have sent in complaints due to the fraudulent letters. Some have called their Attorney General because after they signed up they were later charged $200 for not using the card within the first 10 days. If that alone doesn’t show you something is just a bit weird with this credit card then gullibe is the name.
