Re: Credit Card Scam?
It is possible that they've charged an amount that is against the law because it is too high, under Mass. usuary laws. There are other federal laws involved, also.
When was the $650 charged?
Could your son pay it off now if he wanted to? (Or could / would you do so?)
But do not pay off that total yet! First, have your son call me. If I like the case and I take it, I charge typically part of what I can save you.
