capital one card app scam?

I recently received something in the mail from Capital One inviting me to apply for a credit card. However, I have some concerns. I'm unable to either mail in the application they provided or access the online application at application.capitalone.com. The letter includes a reservation code and an access code, and it appears to be a limited-time offer. I'm skeptical about the validity of this application. While I would like to apply online, it requests my Social Security number, and I'm wary of potential identity theft. Is this a scam, or does it at least seem like one?

You are under no obligation to give your SS number out for a credit card application. There are some cards that will reject you for not giving it to them, but it is not required and this info can be found on the Social Security Website.

With your social security number, birth date and address these scanners will drain money from your accounts. Please believe that this scam is run by hackers who are very good at what they do. If you are interested in a Capitol One credit card have a bank representative do it for you. I recommend you not to fall for this scam. It s a hoax and a way to get all of your personal information. Finally, Capitol One does not send out application invitations unless you had previously requested them to do so. I guarantee you that 80% of the online credit card offers are nothing but scams. I have friends who had their personal banking accounts drained and in other cases lost thousands upon thousands of dollars, and even their homes. Avoid anything to do with on line credit cards or credit check companies!

It’s legit. If you go to the actual Capital One site at http://www.capitalone.com,/ there’s a link there you can click to respond to the mail advertisement. That link leads you right to application.capitalone.com, so you know that site is real.

No scam.

It doesn’t sound like a scam. Try calling capital one directly.

If I want a card I would go to my bank [of last 60 yrs]

and get it.

Absolutely no more crap in my snail mai;l or on my pc.
