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 [email protected].

==================

I was contacted by Prime America credit services with an offer for a MasterCard. I do not have great credit, and wanted to rebuild my credit. Foolishly, I paid Prime America $249.00, and was told that I would receive my MasterCard within 4 weeks. Several months went by before I heard anything. When I did recieve my card, it was merely a Debit card from Morgan Beaumont not a credit card at all! No credit limit, just a debit card.

No mention of this was ever made by PrimeAmerica representatives I was assured repeatedly that this would be a credit card, and that it would help me rebuild my credit. There is no website information that I can find for Prime America however, the Morgan Beaumont website does say that it is a debit card, but you can order one directly through them for only $49.95!!! To be fair to Morgan Beaumont, Prime America never mentioned that this card would be from them. Prime America merely charged me $200 for something I could have done for myself if I so desired. Stay AWAY from Prime America! They are a first-class rip-off...

FALSE REPORT ON MORGAN BEAUMONT

#2REBUTTAL Owner of company

Tue, February 10, 2004

We have viewed the report posted on this web site and it is inaccurate.

We suspect the poster to be either misinformed or malicious it their posting to gain attention by alleging a SCAM and using our company name.

If you have a problem, or issue with Morgan Beaumont Inc. we are very easy to find. We have been at the same URL and phone number for 3 years and I answer each and every email that I receive.

To clear up misinformation posted on this site about Morgan Beaumont Inc.

1) Morgan Beaumont does not know or do business with Prime America. It has never done business with Prime America.

2) Morgan Beaumont does NOT allow telemarketing of its product and we have posted this on our web site for 1 year.

3) Morgan Beaumont has not shipped a brand name Morgan Beaumont Stored Value MasterCard or Morgan Beaumont Debit MasterCard since June 2003.

4) Morgan Beaumont sells a Morgan Beaumont Money Card on the web for $39.95

5) Morgan Beaumont moved to new offices in Nov 2003 and the poster does not have the correct Morgan office address

6)Morgan Beaumont has never had a sales rep or agent in Denver. The posting by Daniel some is inaccurate and an attempt to gain attention or creditability.

Morgan has and is diligent in addressing all of its complaints including filing reports on those making false allegations.

I would suggest that people visit our web site (on ever search engine there is) and email me should from out web site CONTACT US page if you have a problem rather than post nonsense on this web.

The posting from Kristine Fall River, Massachusetts is FALSE

Thank You
President
