I received a $6500 credit card from CCA that I did not apply for with my name and address printed on it. The paperwork states that, if I do not contact them to cancel, they will debit my checking account $199.99 for a membership fee. There is only one 800 number provided and it only allows you to activate the account. There are no human contacts.
I researched CCA online so that I may cancel the account and discovered the many fraud and scam stories of victims that have been stolen from.
Some say they did not provide their bank account info and do not know how CCA obtained it. Nevertheless, CCA continues to debit their accounts by using an alias and taking different amounts.
I called my bank to get advice and they say I can put a block on CCA or block the amount of $199.99 for a $35.00 fee, meaning $35 for the name, $35 for the amount, or $70.00 to block both. (I just love the idea of giving money so that it's not taken from me.) By the way, how do you block an unknown name and an unknown amount?
Watch out for:
CCA (catalog)
P.O. Box 46101
Las Vegas, Nevada, 89114-6101

They have also used other Las Vegas addresses and 800 numbers
