Hey.

It's Randy Brown's first day on the job and he hasn't yet learned the difference between a Sapphire Preferred and a FREEDOM Platinum Prestige.

Cut him some slack.

Something smelly phishy to me. If it looks like a phish, swims like a phish, smells like a phish, then you're probably being phished.

And Randy Brown sounds more like an adult film star than a "Chase Freedom Account Representative"
