Beware! Ripped off and Scammed "Internet"

My husband received a call from First Capital telling him that he could receive a Mastercard and Visa with a limit of $2500 dollars each card. We only had to pay $199.00. They would take this money by electronic withdrawal and after they got the money we would receive our cards within 10 to 14 days.
I wish I had been smart enough to look on internet first but that was not the case. While my husband was talking to this woman I had him ask her how did we know that this wasn't a scam since we had not received anything in the mail first. Of course, what a joke to find out that it really is. Anyway, she replied, "oh no, I even have a number that you can call and verify everything. It is a customer service number. The number is 416-488-4664.". Well, it seems they gave the same number to everyone else that I have read about being scammed by this company. We have called several times and all we receive is an answering machine. Imagine that!!!
We are going to see what we can do to hopefully get our money back and we will now have to change our account and all. What a mess. Next time we will definitely know to look on the BBB or the complaint first. Please beware of this company. They are happy to take your $199.00 but you will never see your cards!!!
