Every timer I've gotten a cell phone they have always run a credit check on me; because they often give the phones away or have huge discounts on the phones they want to make sure someone will pay the bill before giving them the phone....by asking them for a cell phone offer you basically applied for a line of credit with them, and they should have clarified with you that you were applying for credit and a credit check would be run.....nothing fraudulent or unusual...just a misunderstanding!
