Prime One Financial Group Credit card scam, up to $217.00 Internet
I just wanted to add my name to the list of Prime One's latest victims. I was phoned and promised a $1,000.00 credit limit Mastercard card from their company (wonder if Mastercard knows they are being used in this), of course this was providing I allowed them to deduct the one time fee of $217.00 from my bank account. I was told that I would recieve my card in 7 to 10 days.
Another person called me back to confirm things about 30 minutes later, also stating that I would be automatically signed up for access to a long distance something or otherthat allowed unlimited long distance, and that I could cancel this after the first FREE 15 day period, by calling another number, or I could keep it and my card would be billed $40.00 automatically every month.
At present I have heard nothing, and when I called to ask about it, I was given some story about things waiting to clear at the bank and packets being sent that needed to be signed and sent back. I have received nothing. It wasn't until I decided to look them up on the internet, per a friends suggestion, that I found out what had obviously happened to me and my money.
I have contacted my bank to report an unauthorized transaction and will contact the other agencies suggested in your report on what to do if you're scammed. I hope these people can be stopped and I'm willing to help if I can. Thank heavens your website is around to let us know these things.
