Re: DIRECT EXPRESS MASTERCARD LOCKOUT ! BOGUS
Hi MD2,
That kind of scam is going on all the time. I have has my CC restricted 3 times in 6 mos. because someone tried to use the #. I now have an app on my iPhone that alerts me within seconds of any charge made against my Citicorp CC. I pay close attention to it since I once lost $2200 to a CC bandit about 10 years ago.

Re: DIRECT EXPRESS MASTERCARD LOCKOUT ! BOGUS
sadly. the scumbags of the world are ten steps ahead at all times. this is how they make money. Law enforcement that we deal with at our mere peasant level is too taxed to really be concerned with it that intently, and far to under equipped to, if they weren't too busy dealing with the cluster that society is becoming.
the division that should be dealing with it is far too lackadaisical to do much.
we just get to worry about the problem, and hope that our lives don't get fucked up because the illustrious government that's supposed to protect us could really give two shits.There is no greater sorrow than to recall in misery the time when we were happy - Dante.

I got the IRS one, where they claim to be last chance before suing you and fines. I knew it was bull but I checked the Internet anyway. Found the scam online.

Re: DIRECT EXPRESS MASTERCARD LOCKOUT ! BOGUS
I don't get any of these calls, not even scammers call me. The one I would like to get is the one where they tell you that there are fines that need to be paid right away or you will be arrested, would love to hear the reaction when they were told to come and get me bitch, I'll be waiting.
