First plus platinum credti card

[Anonymous]

I just received an offer for $7,500.00 credit card.  How good or what's the catch on a first plus platinum credt card?  Any suggestion?

Thanks,

Flavia

I did some searching with google, and it appears that the company behind this offer is the same company behind these other similar offers:

AWBC Platinum Credit - awbcplatinumoffer.com

Centennial One Platinum Credit - centennialoneplatinumoffer.com

Common Wealth Gold

First National Gold Credit - firstnationalgoldoffer.com

First Plus Platinum -- firstplusplatinumoffer.com

First Universal Platinum Credit - firstuniversalplatinumoffer.com.

First World Platinum

Global Gold Credit - globalgoldcreditoffer.com

Vcomm Voicemail

ID Watchdog

It appears that this offer is a scam, in my opinion. The other day someone on here asked about the Centennial One Platinum Card: (link)

This company even resorted to planting fake positive reviews at ripoffreport.com

To show you how tricky they are, they recently changed the name of their company. On May 30, 2008 they bought the vantexgroup.com (Vantex Group) and that is their current marketing site. This is how they pay their "affiliates" which are really spammers and website owners that direct traffic to their misleading products. Well, before May 30th, they were know as Vertek Group (vertekgroup.com goes to vantexgroup.com). They changed names to try to hide from all the people they ripped off. They also changed their domains. They used to all use the domain awarecart.com, but now they all have new domains. And why would you need so many different sites if you are trying to build a good brand of credit. It is to hide who they are so the complaints don't pile up.
