Opt Out of CC Offers
« on: Sep 27, 2007, 01:52:03 PM »
This may have gone around before but it's the first time I've seen it...so in case anyone else is interested and has not see it yet either...

If you are tired of receiving all those pre-approved CC offers you can opt out as per the following.

http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/conline/pubs/credit/prescreen.shtm

If you decide that you don’t want to receive prescreened offers of credit and insurance, you have two choices: You can opt out of receiving them for five years or opt out of receiving them permanently. Call toll-free 1-888-5-OPTOUT (1-888-567-8688) or visit www.optoutprescreen.com for details. The telephone number and website are operated by the major consumer reporting companies. When you call or visit the website, you’ll be asked to provide certain personal information, including your home telephone number, name, Social Security number, and date of birth. The information you provide is confidential and will be used only to process your request to opt out.

Who doesn't want a 0% offer now and again?

I would rather not give out my personal information to just anybody that says they can stop them from being sent out.

How do you know this is not just a phishing scam?


BTW, what's for dinner?

IE says it's not a reported site and snopes has nothing on it...why, don't you blindly trust the feds? All the info goes into Hillary's mailing list.

I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.
