Integra financial contacted me by my new T-Mobile cell phone. Offering a $2000.00 mastercard unsecured could not be denied for only a small one time fee of $249.00. I fell for it hook line and sinker. Offered up my account information without even realizing I had not applied for such a card. I accepted the deal but delayed the deduction from my bank account until the 23rd of March. Then the card would be mailed 7-14 days after deduction. I thought through out the weekend tried to find the company on-line no website, also they did not answer their phones through the weekend. Finally Monday morning I was able to reach someone at the phone # 866-848-6234.
Asked the address and did the company have a website she indicated they did not have one, but did give me an a address. I asked if I could move up the date for the card to be issued and she said that it would hold up the card and delay it a few more days, because it changes everything in her system. After the phone call I became even more concerned because what company wouldn't want $249.00 sooner than later. I then tried to find the address given. Through the yellow pages no address exists. Now I'm really getting concerned. Again back to try and locate them on any website.
And that is when I spotted the same companies name on a website stating TOO-BIG SCAM read the information quickly called my bank stopped the account blocking any further debit deduction. I thought by age 45 I could spot a scam or a con. Thank you Sara from Mesa Arizona had it not been from your report I might have been out $249.00. From here on out anytime I receive calls of this type my first words will be No-Thank-you.
