A week before Christmas 2006 I received a call a man with a strong asian accent said I was approved on a visa card with a credit limit of $10,000 he said the name of the Company was Platinum Benefit Group and that I will have to pay out of my account the processing fee of $139.99, I told him that I could not be because my credit is not good he said this was to offer me the opportunity of reestablishing my credit. I told him that I will have to call back because the money in my account was to pay a bill before Christmas, he said that the card will be in my hands in three days and I could use the card to pay the bill because this was a Visa.
Stupid me I believed him. They took the money out of my checking account and still today 1/1/07 I have not received the card.
I can not believe that these people pray on people like me with financial problems and no money. I had to borrow money to pay for the bill since the bank is not going to pay me back according to the bank it is my fault I gave these bozos, permission to take the money and run. I had no other choice than to close the account.
Is there any legal way of stoping these crooks from doing this?
