BABC is the worst company ever!! Another NEW a scam!
I too fell for the credit card scam. The person called my house several days in a row. I talked it over with my friend and thought I might as well.
She kept telling me that it was not a pay as you go card, that there would be $2000.00 credit on the card as soon as I got it. They took the money out of my checking account so I called to see how long and was told that it would be another 2 weeks.
I waited for the two weeks and called again and was informed that it takes 4 to 6 weeks. I started looking into the company and found this web sight.
My friend called for me and they told him that I would be receiving my card by the first of Febuary. I had a funny feeling so I called back and spoke to another person and explained everything to her and her and I listened to the recorded message that the original person set up the credit card with me. And it was stated that it "was not a pay as you go card".
I knew then that it was a scam. Now they are telling me that it will take two months to get my money back. I have contacted my bank and several other places to complain about them. BE BEWARE!!!! BABC is a scam. I am glad about being able to tell others. Thank you.

I too was a victim of this scam and I am really disappointed that there are not tougher regulations to keep companies like this from ripping people off. I recieved the same call as did everyone else. I called the 1800 number which for the most part was not working. I then tracked down through my bank 3 different companies that dealt with this BABC. Unfortunately for them, I hope that they have a very good excuse and/or a good lawyer because they will be recieving legal papers from me.
