Like the rest of the reports, the company called me stating that I had been approved for a Mastercard, with a credit limit of $2000.00 with no interest for 3 years and then a low interest, but there was a one time processing fee of 19.00. They just needed me to verify some information and then they just need some additional information.
Well I went ahead and gave it to them because I thought that it was a Mastercard that I had applied for earlier that week. They then proceeded to give me a customer service number, 1-866-642-9465, and told me that I would need a PIN # 1000.
After I got off the phone I then starting getting a little suspicious, so I tried calling the number, but there was just a message! I then tried to call the number that they called me from but still never got an answer.
After a few days of trying to do some investigation, I never came up with anything. So I just decided to call my bank and see what I would need to do to stop these people from taking the money out of my account. I thought that it was gonna be a direct debit, so I didn't stop payment, because the bank told me that I could do an unauthorized debit after the money came out and could receive it back. Well the money came out alright, but it wasn't for 19.00 it was 249!!
I then called the bank and they told me that SUREWAY BENEFICIAL had developed a check and had got the money! Well I couldn't do an unauthorized debit bc it was a check. After getting a copy of the check I then searched the Internet and found this website and discovered that I had been SCAMMED!
I immediately called the bank and told them what had happened. They are still investigating, so I'm not even sure that I will get my money back! Please be aware of these awful people!!! I have learnt my lesson to never give any info out over the phone!!
