These people called me 2 times in a week. The first call was from a man. The second call was from a woman named "Shara."
Shara was very persuasive. She wanted $296 and said it was a setup fee to receive a credit card with a $2500 limit. They were going to help me rebuild my credit.
I even asked her if I would get an ACTUAL credit card, not a credit building package or whatever. She said I would receive an actual credit card within 15 business days. I really interrogated her about what banks they work with, etc. I cannot believe I fell for it, but I have dealt with a reputable credit card company before and they charged a fee.
She ended up asking for my checking account number and bank info and said they would take the $296 out of my account at a later date. But I started getting more suspicious after I hung up. When I couldn't reach their "customer service" I started searching the internet and found the consumer complaints.
Thanks to you all, I found out how many people are being taken advantage of by these scam artists. Now I have to go close out my bank account. What a pain... But at least they didn't get my money.
Good luck everyone, I guess if it sounds too good to be true, well... We all know how that one ends.
