My husband received a call from this number but they hung up when he answered. He called them back and gave them his name and address. The foreign lady that he was speaking with told him that he is eligible for a $100 Visa, $2,000 in coupons and a $25 gift card to a restaurant of our choosing. They simply needed $9.99 for shipping, handling and the activate our card. That was when my husband got smart and handed me the phone. I asked the lady what it was that made us eligible, to which she responded "for making a qualified purchase at one of our retailers." I asked if she could tell me which retailer I made a purchase through but apparently she "does not have access to that information." I told her that I was skeptical of giving her my debit card information as I had recently fallen victim to fraudulent purchases that drained my account. She asserted the Consumer Credit Act, which I am entirely familiar with already. I asked why the $9.99 couldn't be deducted from the Visa card that they would be sending, which apparently had her lost for a response. She then told me that they are a multi-million dollar company so I asked her how it is exactly that they became a multi-million dollar company when they send out $2,125 worth of material receiving only $9.99. Of course, she had no answer for that so she then began repeating herself with the Consumer Credit Act. Nothing that she was saying made me feel comfortable with giving her my card information. The thing that blows my mind is that there probably are people out there that believe this is a legitimate offer and then wonder why it is that their information ends up being compromised. People, please remember that if it sounds too good to be true, in this day and age IT MOST CERTAINLY IS!!
