Q Link Wireless Claim to Offer Government Phones But Really a Scam to Get People's Personal ID. Phone is Never Delivered. Dania Florida

Q Link Wireless claims to be a provider of cell phones to people who participate in some type of government program such as Medicaid. 

They ask for your personal information and a copy of your Medicaid card or a card for a similar program, allegedly to prove that you're eligible for their "program." (In Missouri, Medicaid cards have the customer's social security number displayed on the front.)

Once your personal information is sent they send an e-mail confirming that they received it, but within a few days-when they should be sending your phone-instead they start sending a barage of e-mails claiming that they can't send the phone yet because they haven't received proof of your participation in a government program. They do not have a working phone number; only a phone number that sends you into an answering machine hell with no way to leave a message asking for a call back. They ignore e-mails and faxes. It becomes clear that they're not a legitimate business.

Other people have filed Rip-Off reports reporting that Q Link used their personal information to withdraw money from the customer's account without permission.

This seems to be a "company" that doesn't WANT to conduct legal, ethical transactions. Trying to contact them is just a waste of time. I have reported them to the Florida Attorney General. I recommend that anyone else who is scammed by this outfit do the same. If you're a disabled person or senior, mention that in your report to the Attorney General, as financially explioting an elderly oir disabled person is a crime in the USA.
