Type of a scam Phishing
Faraday Design 4101 McEwen Rd Suite 415 Farmers Branch, TX 75244, Phone #866-700-1773 apparently sent my 86 year old mother a card offering 4 – $50 gift certificates redeemable on purchases from Walmart, Home Depot, and about 10 other large chain stores and a 14 day free trial on the 247 MedPlan for just paying the shipping and handling fee of $3.95. If the participant does NOT want the 247 MedPlan they must call and cancel before the end of the 14 day free trial or they will be charged $39.95 per month for the plan. My 86 year old mother does not even remember ever replying to such a card or receiving any gift certificates or 247 MedPlan information. After seeing the monthly charges for a few months she stopped the payments. http://faradaydesign.com and http://247medplan.com both have toll free phone #s which mostly answer with a recording saying they are closed and you must call back within regular business hours. These website have a very nice surface look but little concrete information. My mother lost over $120 to these scammers before we stopped the payments. Other than the credit card bills she has no other printed information or evidence.
