How could I have been so [/b]stupid?? I got a postcard in the mail from a company in Ft. Lauderdale, FL, saying IMPORTANT VEHICLE WARRANTY INFORMATION. So I called the "Toll Free" number on the back and they offered me a warranty package deal to last 'til 2008. It sounded vital, so I gave them a credit-card number for it (!). When I told my mom about it, she said since it wasn't from my dealer here in town, I'd been scammed, and that I should have talked with her first. Then I called the "Warranty" company back, and asked to be taken off the list, and that I felt that I been scammed. Of course, the A-hole on the line read me the riot act, but they said they'd do it anyway. My mom says not to worry, that I should just watch my next credit-card statement for any unusual outstanding charges, but I feel like such a moron. I should have seen this was an obvious scam for my cash!
