Cancel your current credit card and get your new credit card number ASAP because actually you shouldn't believe what they said

1. call the insurance company to cancel the insurance. If you purchase from telemarketer, you can have 30 days cool down period.
2. If they refuse to cancel the insurance, call your credit card company to DISPUTE the charge, which means the credit card company will credit back your charge. The worst situation is that you lose one month payment.
3. For unauthorized use of your credit card, your maximum responsibility is $50. But you have to inform your credit card company if you find you lose the card or some unusural charge.
4. Lots of credit card companies provide fraud free internet shopping. You are not responsible for any unauthorized charge.
5. PUT EVERYTHING IN WRITING. for example, write to the insurance company to cancel, not just call them.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1，信用卡保险。有个公司打电话给你(并非你开卡的公司)，游说你每年花400元左右，就可以在万一你的信用卡被盗，丢失或被盗用时你可以向他们索取赔偿。很多消费者到真的索赔时才发现根本没得可赔，他们不光要了你的钱，还拿了你的真实个人资料作非法用途。其实信用卡保险是由开卡公司或银行免费提供保险的。一旦发生那些情况，开卡公司自然会给你搞定。
2，虚假的慈善机构。有人打电话来说为某某慈善机构募捐，其实这个机构根本不是慈善机构，如the Association to Help The Red Cross。
2。Bell的丑恶技俩。现在长途公司很多，肯定都比Bell便宜，弄的Bell急了。但是光打电话叫你转回去，没人愿意，别人一问你价格就没戏。于是Bell来了一手，给你打电话说，你现在可以把我们的长途设为"primary long distance"，你现在用的可以放在“secondry long distance”。而且这一招多用在给中国人身上，欺负英语不好，稀里哗啦一阵狂说，就把线给你卡过去了。我就遇到这么一次，大清早还没睡醒，迷迷糊糊就答应了。后来偶然拨打查国际长权的号码，发现变成Bell的了。把我那个气！
I hate the stupid BELL too. They charge me 500$ for so called 900 charge, God, only after I get the bill I know what is the 900 service for ! They just what to cheat you at first to see if you are idiot, Be careful, guys.
