Ripoff Report Investigation: CREDIT CARD - FRAUD ALERT!
A credit card fraud operation is in effect across the country that poses a significant danger to your financial health. This operation fraudulently uses the Primerica name to mislead consumers into paying money to obtain a credit card. This fraudulent operation is not affiliated in any way with Primerica Financial Services in Duluth, GA, or Citigroup.

Here's the activity to which you should be alert:
A telephone call by the scammer falsely offers credit cards by misrepresenting that Primerica in Duluth, GA is offering the credit card, which is totally false. Typically, the caller obtains bank account information over the phone and the victim is asked to pay a sum of money to supposedly receive the credit card. The money is then debited from the victim's account with a promise that the credit card will be sent shortly. Once you send your money to these companies, you never get your promised credit card and you cannot get your money back.

In most jurisdictions it is illegal for a company to request an upfront fee prior to obtaining a loan. The real Primerica does not offer credit card services. If you believe that you have been victimized by this false credit card scam that misuses the Primerica name please contact the Task Force investigating this matter by calling PhoneBusters at 1.888-495-8501, or sending email to info@phonebusters.com.
==================

I was contacted by Prime America saying that I had been approved for a Mastercard with a limit of $2,000.00 I then proceeded to give them my information. They told me that I would recieve my card in about two week from that date. They took $187.00 out of my share account and it has been well over a month. I have not recieved anything. I would like to know how to get my money back. On my statement it shows First Fiancial pre-authorized payment!!
