NEVER do business over the phone!! Always get it in writing!!

I am assuming by your post that some telemarketer called you and offered you the card. This is exactly why I NEVER take telemarketing calls, and NEVER agree to anything over the phone.
ALWAYS ask for any offer to be mailed to you so you can review it. ANY reputable company will not have a problem with this.
If you are being pressured to make an immediate decision, chances are good you are being ripped off.
I only hope you used a VISA or Mastercard branded debit card or credit card to pay the $200, and it is within 60 days of the statement it showed up on. If so, just dispute the transaction with the bank as fraudulent, not as agreed.
If they asked you to Western Union the money, this also is the first sign of a scam, and your money is now gone without recourse.
Good luck.
