ALWAYS check your junk mail!

I was going thru some of our junk mail tonight, and noticed that Joel got a REAL credit card in the mail...not the pre-approved fake card that says "Your Name Here." It was the real deal - "Your CCS First National membercard has arrived. This card cannot be used until activated. To activate call: 1-800-###-####."

I couldn't believe it...what if someone else had gotten ahold of this card????

After further investigation of WHO was sending this card, I came to this conclusion: I have no idea. Consumer Credit Services, Inc. offers a First National Membercard. Whatever that means. They have ridiculous membership fees for using their card to purchase merchandise from their unspecified catalog, while offering "great" benefits concerning cash-on-demand and interest rates.


No matter who's trying to con us out of money, I'm glad I saw that it was a REAL card!

WOW! That is so scary! Good thing you checked! We never seem to get junk mail because we move so often! Or maybe we do and it just keeps going to our old addresses! haha!
