I think it's a phony credit card scam originating with telemarketers in Canada. It has other names and this one may change soon. Canadian terrorists (I mean telemarketers) are ripping Americans off to the tune of several billion per year. Most of the scams involve a phony credit card. Please, do not, for a moment, entertain the notion that you can get a real credit card from a telemarketer.

Post subject: titan financial credit card scam
i was also contacted by these scam artists about getting a credit card. I authorized them to electronically deduct $299 from my checking account. As soon as I did I felt very uneasy and looked them up on the computer. I was horrified when I read all the ripoff reports. I immediately called the bank and paid $25 to stop payment on the withdraw. I then called these people back and informed them that I was cancelling the check. They, however, tried to withdraw the money anyway. I received verification of this from the bank today. I feel foolish for this and today I called them back to let them know that I knew they were ripoff artists. They very calmly told me that was ok and to have a nice day. If they are not stopped they are going to continue to sucker people like me. I am sorry they used your good name in a scam like this.

If you really need a credit card, try Orchard, Household, Capital One, I think Emerge, and Aspire are better than Titan.

Avoid Emerge and Aspire at all costs. Although not an outright scam like the phony Titan credit card, Compucredit has extremely negative reviews by hundreds of users on every consumer-friendly site I've encountered. Of course, stockholders in compucredit would have you believe otherwise. Just check around.

I was also scammed by Titan. They even went as far as to give me a claim number and customer service number. The number they gave was 800-410-1682. They sounded very convincing and I didn't even start looking on the internet until I realized my card was late. Then it never came and I found this site. Now I am pissed!!!!!! If you know a way I can get my money back call me.

I got a phone call saying that Titan Financial was a credit card company, and if I let them take $299 from my bank account they would send me a 2500 credit card. THat was April 4th and it is now June 3rd. I got on the internet because I could not get a hold of customer service. They gave me the number 800-410-1682. Which is now out of service. I have the entire conversation that I had with these so called credit card providers. I recored and will be happy to share it with anyone who can help me.

I don't understand the details but Titan is using "electronic checks" to get around the usual ACH check processing regulations. Victims now only have a few days to get their money back. When will it end? Our checking accounts ARE NOT SAFE. for the latest, check out "CREDIT SCAMS" at eyeoncredit.com
