Quote:I would like to know who this person was?. Maybe it is some rich guy, and very probably the person will not understand it.Obviously I won't disclose a name, but I see no harm in presenting the numbers from which I drew my own conclusion. The person has a limit of $2150, a balance of $992, and an interest rate of 21.4%. I surmised this was not a rich person, but one who (dang. who or whom?) was struggling to make ends meet. The past due $29.00 contributed as well. The unused available credit of $1158, however, indicated some restraint.
Quote:If I got a letter like that I would directly call my bank to block my credit card.I read that and realized that would be my initial reaction as well. Then I thought I would check the phone book and see if the sender' was listed and if the published addressed matched the return and that on the copy of the check. See my reply to Artega a further realization of mine.
Quote:(if you did not send it yet, why don't you tear it up and give your money to some charity?)Already sent. For better or worse, the deed is done. Although, can I not give to a fellow person as well as to my charity?
