I was called by someone named Jasmine McKye representing herself to be from First Capital Consumers group. I had been chosen to receive a free cellular phone AND mastercard and/or visa with a credit limit of $2,000. All I had to do in return was to give them $199 which would be debited from my account. I gave her the account number and asked if I had to put money in a savings account. She told me that was not necessary. I would receive my information packet about 7 business days following the debit of money from the bank. She had her supervisor call me back to confirm the details. I was given the customer number 1515, as were numerous other people from the reports I've read. She gave me her personal phone number to call if I had any problems. She would be there Monday through Saturday from 10-6. I thought nothing more of the incident until I realized how much time had gone by and I had an idea that this might be one of those ripoff fraud scams. I called the numbers given to me this morning, the personal number was changed and unlisted, the second number said the voice mail was full and to hang up. The third one ask for name phone number and a brief message and someone would call back as soon as possible. At that point, I knew I had been "taken" by my stupidity in believing these fraudulent ripoff con artists. I decided to see if there was a web site and that is when I found The complaint. I just want my money back and see these idiots brought to justice so that this will not happen to anyone else. CarolYork, Pennsylvania
