Complaint:
I have asked Discover bank for a dispute and explained to them that I am victim of fraud of cooperation of two Companies of XXXX   XXXX and XXXX XXXX. But Discover bank after 2 weeks took it out of dispute with no explanation until I called them. Their reason was because it is aged.I also explained because of that fraud I am completely drained out of money, on top of that because of medical issues I am not able to work and and do not have income. They have come up with solutions that does not work for me and instead they have sent me letter, that they are going to increase the interest which will make my case even worst, I am already under a lot of pressure and sick and stressed out. for more explanation please see below : XXXX XXXX XXXX ( works ) with a crook XXXX XXXX company and acts as a fundamental customer funding tool, enabling XXXX to rip people off by providing credit cards to drain and pay to XXXX for easily trusting people like me. A year ago I trusted XXXX  and purchased their program which I didn't have money to purchase. A team of 5 representatives from XXXX XXXX were present in the event to hunt people like me that have no money and provide them with credit cards to make them to buy XXXX 's programs and in return charge/gain almost {$4000.00} in commission. As a result of their partnership, I am under {$60000.00} of debt in credit cards that am not able to pay back and has resulted in bad credit for years to ruin my life ( which before this my credit score was XXXX ). Only because of false hope that we are going to make triple of this amount in a matter of short time of 2 months. At the moment, there is a legal case taking place against XXXX XXXX in federal court in Florida that is filed by hundreds of victims like me. The following link is a proof of it. ( XXXX ) XXXX XXXX  was fully aware of the predatory nature of this company because they have been managing many of these events hand in hand nation-widely from before and carelessly cooperated with them to gain their lucrative commission. To me XXXX XXXX is as predatory as XXXX XXXX, because without XXXX   XXXX, XXXX would have been powerless and would not be able to prey on innocent people who believed in them.
