This company contacted me via telephone stating that I was approved for 2 cards, i.e. a VISA and a Mastercard in the amounts of $2000 and $2500. The person I spoke was Michael Watts. He took all my information from my banking account and stated that $199.00 would be withdrawn and three weeks later I should receive my credit cards in the mail. He also stated that these cards did not require any credit approval and that they did not report them to the credit reporting agencies (that's when I should have known it was a scam). He then stated that a person would call me back and verify all my information.
Ten minutes later a woman called me back and she confirmed my information. It actually took 2 weeks before they withdrew the money from my account and when they did I thought that was sort of strange to wait that long, so I began calling them and never getting an answer I was only able to leave a voice message. No one ever called me back yet, that's when I got online and did a search for the company name and found the canada-complaints.com site and the first company I saw was 1st Capital.
THEY ARE A TRUE SCAM! I am very hurt by this and hope that no one would ever have to go through what I went through. I also noticed that canada-complaints.com advocates are going to assist me in getting my monies back from this company. I emailed them yesterday, 7/8/02 and they emailed me back stating that it would take approximately 7-14 days to see a FULL refund in my account.
