I was contacted today, 8 Dec 04 by this company, Centurian Financial Services and was offered a Master Card with a $2,000 limit for a down payment of $249. I too was told that there was a 0% APR for 3 years and after 6 months I could increase my limit up to $7,000. I am in the military and travel a lot, so this sounded like a great offer to me.

I verified my SSN, address, and even gave the lady my DL # (like a dummy). My question to you guys is what do I do now? I got very leery when she asked me for my bank information and said that I couldn't just mail in a check once I got my card. So I told her to call me back and I'd get the info for her. I sincerely doubt that she'll call back, but the company does have my personal info. Is there any way I can prevent my SSN and DL # from being used without my permission?

SSN Fraud Alert

AUTHOR: Erica - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Thursday, December 09, 2004

The same company Centurian Financial called me on 12/04/04 and offered me the same credit card. Right after I got off the phone with the guy, I looked the company up on the internet and this website came up, Ripoff.com. They told me they were going to draft the $249 out of my checking account on 12/14/04 for the processing fees for this 0% for 3yrs Martercard.

So I gave the guy all of my information as well SSN #, D.L. #, Checking account #, D.O.B. Yes I was also fooled by these scammers.I'm not going to go into detail on how much I called the phony customer services number that he provided to me. However when Monday morning finally rolled around, I closed my checking account and put a fraud alert on my credit file at all three credit agencies. The alert is supposed to call me when ever someone applies for credit in my name. As far as for my D.L #, I have to research some way I can put some sort of fraud alert on my D.L. Maybe some sort of code when the police run my D.L #. These guys need to be taugh a lesson!! They caused me a lot of pain and suffering and I am really glad I seen this website before the took my money out of my checking account.
