Re: *** LOOKS LIKE A SCAM - BE CARE Prestige Bank, P.O. Box 18902, Maywood, IL 60153. JUST F.Y.I. NOT FOUND ON WWW.USA.COM
Re: *** LOOKS LIKE A SCAM - BE CARE http://www.bankofamerica.com/creditcards/index.cfm?template=cc_visa_plat.cfm SEE BOTH CARDS...FAKE CARD IS A "DOCTORED" BANK OF AMERICA CARD...
Re: *** LOOKS LIKE A SCAM - BE CARE yeah! also different banks have different numbers, you know. The first digit is: 4=Visa, digits 2-6 are the bank number. See both cards: - Bank of America: http://www.bankofamerica.com/creditcards/images/cc_card_baplatv.jpg - "Prestige Visa" http://www.prestigevisa.com/PrestigeCard2.jpg SCAM!!! Regards to all!
Re: *** LOOKS LIKE A SCAM - BE CAREFUL Another clue is that any contact for a real bank is not going to have a hotmail email address.
Re: *** LOOKS LIKE A SCAM - BE CAREFUL somebody needs to file a complaint to the state of Illinois. this one seems to stink Good call guys This board is invaluable!!!
Re: *** LOOKS LIKE A SCAM - BE CAREFUL at the bottom of the application "members FDIC" cute. members huh.
Re: *** LOOKS LIKE A SCAM - BE CARE Above is Prestige Bank's entry on FDIC. This is no doubt a legit bank, the only question is whether that web site is an authentic Prestige Bank promo.
Re: *** LOOKS LIKE A SCAM - BE CARE Sounds exactly the sort of scam that's designed to obtain people's legitimate credit card info. Think about it, once you "apply" they'll have all the info they need to use that major credit card they insist you have -- including your billing address (which in most folk's case is the same as their home address). 1. The bank doesn't exist. 2. Many mispellings, typos and incorrect grammar throughout the website. 3. Their use of a "doctored" Bank of America card. 4. On and on and on and ... STEER CLEAR OF THIS ONE!
Re: *** LOOKS LIKE A SCAM - BE CARE Just got a response from Visa. The matter is being handled by their Fraud Control Unit now. -mj
Re: *** LOOKS LIKE A SCAM - BE CARE Wow!! Very good. He reads this I think - the misspellings have been corrected, and the olympics logo is gone.
Re: *** LOOKS LIKE A SCAM - BE CARE I also noticed the terms and agreement and the privacy links are both the same page..Just think i was filling that app out and when it asked for my other CC info i closed the screen out..ThankGod...Who else can we contact? Fbi and all them are busy now..I will call and ask my bank tommorow..Get a few states looking into it before they down the site..You guys are great..I am so glad i found this board..
Re: *** LOOKS LIKE A SCAM - BE CARE Just got off the phone with friends of mine who are LEOs. I told them the whole story. They had to admit it was a smart con. At any rate since no crime has been committed by their definition. I was given three agencies to contact on Tues. It will mean some explaining but the information provided here will help. So for the sake of doing the right thing I will contact these agencies. Best regards, Mirage
