Capital One Abuse

I received a nice FU from Capital one today. The short of it is they will be giving my personal information such as birthdate and social secutiry number to whoever they choose and their's nothing I can do about. A

According to their paper, federal law gives them the right to bend me over. If they are telling me about it, I'm positive something happened in the legal realm that made them tell me.

All this time people are worried about their private information being secure and our own banks are giving it away. No wonder people are giving the one fingered peace sign to the banks now. First it was the offer paying of CEOs for failing banks, then the $5 charge per month for debit card use by Bank of America, and now this.

I would suggest doing some research about your bank and find what skeletons are in their closet.

Here's a copy of the paperwork Capital One sent me.

Banker's Life and Causality Scam

Yesterday, my wife received a call stating they found my resume on Careerbuilder.com. They wanted me speak to me about scheduling an interview. After getting the contacts name and number from my wife I gave them a call. Instantly, a red flag went up. 

Where I live, it's 90% Hispanic, 9% Caucasian and .5 African and .5 everything else. So, when I hear the person on the other end of the voice mail with a heavy foreign accent I become sceptical. They said they were with Banker's life and Causality. 

I immediately did a search on the Internet for Banker's life and Causality. Although they appear to be an actual company and are legal, my second find on the Internet proved to be more of what I expected. You can read the pages review of the experience of their interview and decide for yourself.

Guilty Until Proven Innocent

I heard something very interesting on the Dave Ramsey show today. He was pointing out that, when it comes to finances and credit, you're guilty until proven innocent. For example, if a company says you owe them money, they can send you to collections. They don't have to prove it. They just tell the collections agency you owe it. Bam! It's on your credit report. So, at this time it's not going to move until you prove your right and they're wrong.

If you work with a large company in customer service, you will get ID Theft calls. A customer will call in and claim it's not their account. They just found out about it through the collections agency. At this point, the customer has to jump through all kinds of hoops.


  • Fill out a federal affidavit which is 5 pages long.
  • Get it notarized
  • File a police report.
  • Get a copy of your driver's license and social security card and 
  • Proof of your residence during the time in questions. 
  • Send it all in for the company to decide if your telling the truth or not. 

I hear a lot of upset customers over this. What surprises me is they think only the one company has this policy. It's pretty standard policy across the board.

Chuck Norris and World of Warcraft

Chuck Norris the legendary bad-ass to beat all bad-asses. He has recently come out on a World of Warcraft Commercial. My wife who doesn't even like WOW finds the commercial funny. Blizzard who makes World of Warcraft has been coming out with some great commercials with real celebrities. Here's a few of my favorite ones.

Chuck Yeager Scam

Check out the Full insight to this email at http://www.snopes.com/politics/military/shiftypowers.asp 

'Shifty'

This requires no comment from me....




"Shifty" By Chuck Yeager


Shifty volunteered for the airborne in WWII and served with Easy Company of the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, part of the 101st

Airborne Infantry. If you've seen Band of Brothers on HBO or the History Channel, you know Shifty. His character appears in all 10

episodes, and Shifty himself is interviewed in several of them.


I met Shifty in the Philadelphia airport several years ago. I didn't know who he was at the time. I just saw an elderly gentleman having
trouble reading his ticket. I offered to help, assured him that he was at the right gate, and noticed the "Screaming Eagle," the symbol of
the 101st Airborne, on his hat.

Making conversation, I asked him if he'd been in the 101st Airborne or if his son was serving.. He said quietly that he had been in the 101st. I thanked him for his service, then asked him when he served, and how many jumps he made.

Quietly and humbly, he said "Well, I guess I signed up in 1941 or so, and was in until sometime in 1945 ..." at which point my heart
skipped.


At that point, again, very humbly, he said "I made the 5 training jumps at Toccoa, and then jumped into Normandy . . . do you know where Normandy is?" At this point my heart stopped.

I told him "yes, I know exactly where Normandy is, and I know what D-Day was." At that point he said "I also made a second jump into Holland , into Arnhem ." I was standing with a genuine war hero .. and then I realized that it was June, just after the anniversary of D-Day.

I asked Shifty if he was on his way back from France , and he said "Yes... And it 's real sad because, these days, so few of the guys are left, and those that are, lots of them can't make the trip." My heart was in my throat and I didn't know what to say.

I helped Shifty get onto the plane and then realized he was back in coach while I was in First Class. I sent the flight attendant back to get him and said that I wanted to switch seats. When Shifty came forward, I got up out of the seat and told him I wanted him to have it, that I'd take his in coach.

He said "No, son, you enjoy that seat. Just knowing that there are still some who remember what we did and who still care is enough to make an old man very happy." His eyes were filling up as he said it.

And mine are brimming up now as I write this.

Shifty died on Jan. l7 after fighting cancer.

There was no parade.
No big event in the Staples Center.
No wall-to-wall, back-to-back 24x7 news coverage.
No weeping fans on television.

And that's not right!


Let's give Shifty his own memorial service, online, in our own quiet way.
Please forward this email to everyone you know. Especially to the veterans.
Rest in peace, Shifty.

Chuck Yeager, Maj. General [ret.]

P.S. I think that it is amazing how the "
media" chooses our "heroes" these days...Michael Jackson & the like!


"SHIFTY" - an incredible American hero
SHIFTY DIED JAN 17, 2011...........May God rest his soul.
Please do me a favor and pass this on so that untold thousands can
read it. We owe no less to our REAL heroes..

Concerning my payment from the United Nations

As I sit her today and post some things about scamming over the internet, something quite original happened. I just received a call from someone with a heave African accent telling me, "We are going to send you an email concerning your payment from the Secratary of the United Nations for $28,000,000." So, I need to call back after opening the email to finalize the details. I just covered how dumb it was to believe this, lol.

Well it's not in yest. When it does, I'll be sure to post it here.
