On 2/6/08 at 1:50pm Call to my home from: #602-248-4930. A woman called from this number and said she was with "Bank Card Visa" and that I had previously contacted them about a home based business. This is how it went...
Her: "Hi, I'm (I think she said Karen). I'm with Bank Card Visa. You had inquired with us about a home based business. "Now Grace honey, are you still interested in a home based business?"
Me: "Wait, you are calling FROM my credit card company?"
Her: "Yes Honey, you inquired about a home based business?
Me: "Yes, but are you my credit card company? I don't understand why YOU are calling me?"
Her: "No, they informed us that you were inquiring about a home based business. Now honey, are you still interested in a home based business?"
Me: "Wait, who are you with again? I'm confused."
Her: "Well... (now she sounds flustered and frustrated)... Never mind!"
and HUNG UP!
That's when I did an online search for the number to find out who they are. The fact that she tried to trick me into thinking she was my credit card company - is FRAUD!
When I look at other blogs for this number - it says it's CashFlow Direct, which is a company I looked into some time ago, but after reviewing endless blogs from consumers bad mouthing them, I was disinterested.
Beware, their tactics are unethical.
