Oxford Financial
Ripoff, scam Nationwide

I was contacted by a man by the name of Daniel Williams. He indicated that he was affilliated with by bank somehow and that i had recently applied for a credit card to link to my bank account for overdraft protection. (i had in fact done that sometime ago) He said he was from Oxford Financial Services.

He said that they would simply debit $249 from my bank account, and that it would be returned the next business day. This was supposed to be some kind of goodfaith payment. I was leary, but he was a good talker and assured me this was on the up and up.

He led me to believe that he already had my account information and that i was just verifying it. What a fool i am!!!

After verifying (or actually giving it to him) my information he transfered me to another department to again verify this information.

This guy gave me a phone # ID# name ect! This really sounded like the real deal!

After we hung up, my little voice inside said (if it sounds to good to be true, it must be) therefore i decided to do some investigating of my own. I tried to call back the # they gave me, it was bogus! So then i got online to look these people up.

I found out that they are in litigation on quite a few charges!
That is also where i found the report from the guy in coneticuit on the same company! Barring a few different words, if you read his report it is practically word for word what they did to me!!

I then contacted my bank and told them i had been a victim of fraud! Needless to say i had to go down, close my account, reopen a new one, buy new checks ect!
Fortunantly for me they didn't get any money, but in the end it did cost me some $, time, and grief over how stupid i had been!

P.S. A bank or credit card company will NEVER solocit business over the phone!
