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.

What did they buy? And why?
They used the cards for their personal use/business expenses also??!

One day they're going to get the wrong person mad & he's going to take emails & recorded conversations to the Feds. There's only so many people you could cheat before someone puts a stop to it.
If this'll happen it'll probably be a relative of someone who signed up. Call me stupid, but I don't think people who fell for this are the type of recording emails and going to the feds.

this definitely has to be stopped. many people have asked me my opinion on them and all of them have no idea what a FR is or hat you can be blacklisted or that they do fraudulent spending or all the other problems.

Why is the fact that your friend didn't get his full money your biggest issue here?

Why didn't he just take the points and run ;)
Probably not smart enough to know the points have more value when used than sold. ;)

the average person does not know how to open 4 biz gold cards at a time or even where to get the sign up bonuses for such cards
Is there something I don't know about? Or was that just an example.


I feel bad for you people that fell into this scam. I wouldn't give anybody my SSN and info no matter how much money they offered me.
On the other hand, I've been wondering for a while how these scam artists have such an easy time opening up cc's for people. I have close friends who asked me to help them out to open up a credit or 2 so they can get some points and money. Together we sat in front of my computer and filled out the apps. And had to call recon once and I called with phone on speaker and him sitting next to me to help me with the answers. Sometimes they ask such weird questions - previous addresses, siblings names, car colors, etc, how in the world can these scammers answer all these questions?!
Seriously! I work my butt off to get approved on a 3bm for myself let alone for my wife, and these guys are doing this all day for strangers and they definitely don't know the answers to personal questions.

Here is a news flash. Amex could blacklist 70% or more of the population and it would not matter. I don't think the people signing up for the 5k care about an Amex blacklist.
That's not true. I know several people who you would assume to be in the 70% who can't get a work credit card because they're blacklisted, and affects their job performance.
