First Premier Bank Master Card unsealed in mail, identity theft attempt, mail fraud, wire fraud, bogus phone numbers per mail and via wire Sioux Falls South Dakota
The solicitation comes in mail, unsealed, is a worry. Call number 1-800-933-6104 wants message. Leads to 1-888-604-9426 wants my SSN.
Finally, at former number get a Marlene to complain to. Gives me same 888 number that only wants SSN, after pointing out, she then gives me bogus customer number 1-800-501-7586.
PO box form is 5525, business reply envelope shows box 5526. Zip plus is 57117-5525, business reply envelope it's 57117-9756 Can not find it per google. Believe this is scam to get SSN. Spanish number is 1-800-933-6104.
Unbelievable charges
1st says 9.9 % interest, then 19.9%
Account set up fee: $29. Program Fee $95.00, Annual fee: $48.00
"Monthly Servicing Fee"$84.00 annually2 (below reads "2"The Monthly Servicing Fee of $84.00 will be $7.00 per month
Additional Fee's" autodraft fees $11.00 each charge
payments requested i.e. Voice Response or Internet $7.00 per transaction
Charges $25.00 for express delivery, aside admitting it is Priority mail in 2 days. Is that mail fraud or what?
Each time your credit limit is increased $25 dollar charge
And on and on.
I really appreciate this unopened mailing arriving at a formerplace of employement where other's have my SSN and could really screw me up. Can't get it cancelled nor try and prevent it's activation. Scary

First Premier Bank offers their products to those with subprime credit. The fees are there to minimize their risk because let's face it- the people they market to tend to have a poor track record. It's not a scam to get your Social Security Number.
Their cards are expensive, no doubt. However I do think that it's better than some of these places that charge far more. This was not an attempt to steal your identity (per thread title) though the envelope should have been sealed.
