I was contacted by phone from First Capital Consumer which sounds exactly like First National Consumer. They said that my husband was approved for a visa and mastercard. The visa was a $2500 limit and the mastercard was a $2000 limit and there would be a one time charge of $199, a 9.9 % interest rate, no annual fees and no other charges. They asked for my checking acct # and routing # to draw out the charges and gave me a customer service number and a pin number that would be for the cards. A Pin Number before I even received my cards? I should have listened to that little voice inside.
Fortunately it was the weekend and I called the number they gave me for customer service who had no idea what company I was talking about and when I called the number back for the company all I got was a mail box service.
Then I notified my bank on Monday of the scam and not to pay the charges. Fortunately I caught the scam before being scammed.
I am very angry that these assholes are still getting away with this scam by changing their name. Please be aware and be very cautious about giving out any personal info as I will be from here on out.
Angry and pissed off!!!
