New to the U.S. – Best first credit card to build credit? Hi everyone, I want to get my first credit card from Bank of America to start building my credit history in the U.S. I currently have a Bank of America debit card, a Green Card, and a Social Security Number, but I have no credit history yet. What is the best first Bank of America credit card for someone in my situation? Should I apply for a secured credit card or a beginner credit card? Thank you for any advice.

Possible identity theft? I got my first credit card last month from capitol one. I don't even have a credit score yet. I got a message that a new account has been opened with Experian and transUnion. I'm not sure if this is to start tracking my credit score or whatever. Im not sure if I'm being overly anxious or not. Is this something I need to report to the bank as fraud/identity theft?

My mother (92 years old) thought she was ordering Nervetin. Somehow got on this website. Placed the order. Ended up having to call someone. First credit card declined the purchase. The second credit card called my mother to verify the purchase, and unfortunately she authorized it. In my research of her purchase I found this BBB Scam. I am now trying to get her out of the order. I am on with customer service right now and they are offering me 70% off. [BBB Scam Type: Online Purchase] [Business: Nervetin] [Location: VA, USA - 22031]

Credit Pulled Without Authorization - What Next Hello all - long time lurker, first time posting. I need some help with this. I'm not sure what do to or how far to take it. Background: We bought a camper last summer from an out of town dealer. My other half wants to "upgrade" to a bigger camper. Apparently there was a discussion with the dealer about trade in and getting a new one that I did not know about. Last week (Thursday) I get a series of notifications on my phone that I had new credit inquiries (eight in total). I'm out of town at a work conference and just don't have time to deal with identity theft \*right now\*. I called the location listed on the first credit pull and spoke to the finance manager. He confirmed that someone had authorized the credit pull. I told him that it was not me and I never authorized the credit application and, at this point, I'm not going to authorize the inquiries. As far as I'm concerned, someone has pulled credit for a potential loan without my consent or knowledge. He confirmed that the credit pull happened at a different location in the franchise. Fast forward to today. I talked to the finance guy at the actual dealership where this "deal" was being arranged. He confirmed he pulled credit. I asked why he didn't get a verbal agreement from BOTH parties and he said, "I thought you were in this together." I informed him that I did not know we were looking for a new camper, I did not agree to having my credit pulled, and I will not retroactively agree. He apologized and said it was a misunderstanding, and, if we were to buy a new camper, that we would get my verbal or written consent. He was very nervous for the entire conversation and, while I was polite, I was very direct and I did tell him that I was pretty pissed off that he did this without my consent. So now here I am. I have eight inquiries on my credit. I know these don't significantly impact BUT I did not approve, I did not consent, and I didn't even know

On their website they ask that you put in your banking information then proceed to call you and ask very personal and sensitive information regarding your account. [BBB Scam Type: Advance Fee Loan] [Business: First Credit Loans USA] [Location: KY, USA - 40004]

I searched via Google for Muck Boots company, and found a site that looked very legitimate. I purchased a pair of shoes through the website. The first credit card payment I tried to make did not go through, and then I tried with my debit card, both did not go through. Then, I tried another payment option they had via PayPal, with my credit card, and it said it was confirmed. After this, I did not receive any order confirmation nor any follow-up communication from the company. I saw that my credit card was charged for the amount of the product by merchant name : payfly*gsuits.shop (HKHK), yet my merchandise did not arrive and I did not get an order confirmation number. It's obviously a scam, and the site was incredibly well done. I can no longer even find the original scam site I went on....

I was ordering 2 sweatshirts & a hat for Christmas & my first credit card didn’t work & said it was declined so I got out another 1 & it went through a day later I checked my card statement & seen I was charged full price for the sweatshirt’s on PayPal & I don’t even have a PayPal account. So I’m pretty sure I was hacked. I did reach out to them & they refunded $17 now they are ignoring me. I’m pretty sure I was hacked. Please help me get my money back. Thank you. The company is from Hong Kong. Thank you so much . [BBB Scam Type: Online Purchase] [Business: Paypal Impostor] [Location: OH, USA - 43701]

We saw an advertisement on our phone, when looking up "YouTube TV", stating "2 free months of YouTube TV". Due to financial reasons the deal sounded good, therefore a call was placed to the number listed on the advertisement. The customer service agent was rude and aggressive, stating that the first credit card wouldn't work and I'd need another one. He said that he could do the payment information faster and better than I could. He had me download an app with a "VPN" at the end of the title, that allowed him remote access into my cell phone. I'm not sure how much information he gathered while he had control over my phone, but he got access to my credit cards. I discovered multiple large charges ranging from $300 to $500 when I contacted all of my credit card companies. He also had me do an iPhone wallet on my husband's phone to try and collect additional payments. He was trying to take payments from both my phone, an Android, and my husband's phone, an iPhone. My credit card companies shut my cards off and I was able to contact the BBB for further steps on how to recover from a scam like this.

I keep receiving calls from "Kiana Navarro" and I can't make out the company, maybe First Credit or something similar, it is a recording and then they want you to select a number to connect. They are claiming I had previously submitted a loan application and didn't move forward last time and now are reviewing it again -- I have never applied for a loan, do not know how they have my information. They keep calling me multiple times a day, so I have answered the past three days in a row 02/09-02/11/26 and spoke to a representative who somehow knows my full name, and requested to be removed from their call list. They assure me that they will, but then they call again. [BBB Scam Type: Phishing] [Business: Unknown] [Location: VA, USA- 22192]

While on Facebook, I saw an advertisement for a makeup bag and attempted to place an order. My first credit card declined the transaction, which I assumed was a glitch, so I used a different card. That transaction went through. I expected to receive a confirmation email with order details, but none ever arrived. Several weeks later, I received a package containing green bows, which I did not order. The makeup bag has still not arrived. In addition, I have started receiving unsolicited text messages from various phone numbers, which I continue to block, but new ones keep appearing. My credit card was charged $59 for this purchase, and I am concerned this may have been a fraudulent transaction. Thank you for your assistance with this matter.
