Response to naysayers:
Some of you are unbelievable. All the post does is encourage you to be careful with your personal information, to think hard about the type of schemes you are getting yourself into and to excersize caution and discretion with credit/financial decisions. So the only people whose parnassah is getting screwed by this are those that are relying on duping others to some extent.

Long story short - a friend of mine fell for this scam about 6 weeks ago, he was promised $2500 because his wife was not approved for CC's so he will only get half of $5k, okay fine. Today he recieved a check of $1500!!!!!!! When he called them up they claimed that they did not receive the bonus on one of the cards they opened for him   :o :o He asked "I have no idea what you're talking about, you told me you apply for the cards, you do the spending and I just get a check in the mail of $2500" they said they can't help him. They made off him 350,000 MR points (over $5,000 worth) and they gave him $1500. I have no words.

This is all besides the point that they did refundable tickets, deposited checks which had no coverage, and his account is under  a FR now.

I think it's time Dan should write up a post about them and reveal their scam.

I know about the other threads, but I opened this one so the title says the truth about them

I think its OUR (The DDF family) responsibility to shut these guys down before havoc occurs.

We know what's going on.
We know what kind of trouble and chillul hashem it can bring out.

I think its time something is done before its to late.

What are the FR folks asking for?

Why didn't he just take the points and run ;)

He did not talk to the FR department, these guys told him they have connections and they will take care of it. (of curse they never did anything)

Maybe call amex after they finish spending and say your identity was compromised and change login info and keep the points

these guys normally want to pass the FR so that they can keep the points and also apply for more cards

If you don't talk to the FR guys then you're gonna have issues getting AMEX in the future as well.
