It Pays to DISCOVER......

A while back I received an offer from Discover Card to add 1-3 people to my "Real Name" Discover Card Account. "THEY" could use the Card, but said use would be billed to ME.

Hmmm!

Did NOT require an address, SSN, etc., JUST A NAME!

I REALLY thought about a nice name such as "Eliot Jacobson", but I figured that there are probably several hundred of us already using same.

When we get caught CC'ing, and PC demands to know your name, just say "Eliot Jacobson"! If WE CC's would ALL become E.J. when caught, then the MAYOR could again sink into the depths of obscurity....and make more $$$.

ANYHOW, I made up a name such as "E. JACK ULATION", and sent it in, then pretty much forgot about the whole issue.

TODAY, in MY mail, Mr. E. JACK ULATION received his own Discover Card!

The cover letter said something to the effect of:

"Dear Mr. Ulation:

phantom007 has entrusted you with the use of his account. Enclosed, please find your card. Proper use of your credit....blah, blah, blah."

GRIN!

My dumb question of the day:

What is a discovery card?

Some type of credit card? If so, how could you get one in the first hand under a pseudo like Phantom007?

What is a discovery card?

yes it's a credit card. get the first one in your real name, then get the second in a fake name. I don't have discover, but get pre-approved apps.

My favorite name is Adolph Oliver Busch.

This works with most credit cards

I have a few VISA cards like this. I got the first one in my real name (Eliot Jacobson of course!), then a few months later I asked for another card in my "brother-in-law's" name that would be billed to my account. The bank was more than happy to give me twice the chance of going into debt.

The nice thing about this particular card is that it has my picture in the corner so a casino doesn't ask to see ID along with it.

Sir, You are obviously either New to this Board, or a Troll.....

Quite simply, many of us CC's are trying to find ways to play BJ in a name that is not our own. Having a Fake I.D. is good, and reportedly, easy ( I have not accomplished that feat yet). Having a FAKE CREDIT CARD, i.e., a VALID ONE!, is more difficult!

I simply got mine, i.e., the FAKE CC....just trying to share.

No, the "Discovery" card was not issued to "phantom007"...it was issued to "E. Jacobson".

GRIN....again!

AGREE!......

Over the last year, I have noted that most LV and Tunica shops now require "photo I.D." when checking in and/or cashing coupons and/or using comps.

A valid photo I.D. is needed. Now, if it is a valid "imitation", and backed by a valid but fake "DISCOVERY CARD", then so be it.

Desparate times call for Desparate Actions!
