Hi Guys,,
Came across this Digital Technology site at http://www.stealthcard.net/index.html does anyone know anything about this deal, or is it one of those 2 good 2 B true things? Any info on this would be appreciated.

Taken from the FAQs on the site:

<<Are your cards official?
It would be "naughty" to use our cards in some countries and we do not accept any liability for the use or misuse of any cards/products we provide you.

Be warned (Law abiding citizens do not order - our service is not for you) unless you use your card outside the UK in certain countries>>


Says it all really, doesn`t it?

Definitely too good too be true.

The company is based in France, and they only have a £1 a minute helpline. Also in their FAQ :

"Are your cards official?
It would be "naughty" to use our cards in some countries and we do not accept any liability for the use or misuse of any cards/products we provide you.

Be warned (Law abiding citizens do not order - our service is not for you) unless you use your card outside the UK in certain countries."

A gold card in all but name.

Avoid.

Hello
I contacted this company and sent 65.00 off and received inreturn nothing but a gold card along with instructions to send off for a card reader at a cost of 59.99 this i did in december as you can probably guess i havent received my card reader and when i tried to contact them they do not reply to telephone call or emails

give these a wide berth

KEN43,

I`m sorry to say this, but you couldn`t have been more of a mug if they`d put a handle on you and drank tea out of you. Didn`t you even *suspect* something was wrong when they sent you the gold card along with "further instructions" - yet you still sent them *more* money?

I can just picture those French chaps laughing all the way to la banque.

Mike

Thing is, they`re not Frenchies, they`re Brits...

Con-artists of the worst order, and they know they are untouchable. May be worth bringing them to Sky`s attention if you feel aggrieved, tho`....
