I received a letter today from the above. Thinking this was my local Bank I called the company. They stated that I could opt out on who they furnished my credit info to if I called and told them. I got a recording asking for my account number (if you dont have your account number give us your Social and then the recording asked for my zip code.
Later I questioned my actions and called the President of my Bank. He stated he has never heard of them. I checked the web and it is loaded with complaints about this company.
May I please hear from you.

SCAM! They are probably Identity thieves

They tried to scam my mother and I with a paper that looked like a tax form. I ended up sending copies of my mother's info, license, ss card and now I am terrified that it was a scam. The tax form looked legit, so I am going to have my mother pull her credit report.....

I, too recieved a mailing ("privacy statement") from world financial network national bank telling me if I didn't want my personal info "shared" to call the 800 number. I also got the recording requesting first my account number (what account?!!) and then my ss#. I thought NO WAY and checked on the internet and found all the wfnnb scam information. I will give this mailing to the post office. The thing that first tipped me off that it might not be legit was that it was in my name, rather than my husband's. (our cr. card acct. is in his name.)

WFNNB is an issuer for department store credit cards. I know for a fact they are the issuer of a dept store named Maurices because my daughter has one. I believe they are an issuer for furniture store cards also.

I think there might be two WFNNBs, one legit, one scamming. For example, I do not have any credit cards by any companies owned by the legit WFNNB.

I do however, have some defaulted internetpayday loans that have nothing to do with WFNNB.

However, three times today on my home phone WFNNB showd up on my caller ID Box. Each time with a different area code and telephone number. This is highly suspect of someone trying to scam

Thanks for the heads up on this being a scam. I got a mailing yesterday.

If there are two WFNNB's, NEITHER is legit. The company that handles debts for department stores scams its debtors by creating false late charges and tacking on interest. They seriously need to be brought to court.

YES! THEY ARE SCAM.. I RECEIVED the same small piece of paper with such an arrogant tone that made me throu up!. What is new in this country? They just think we DECENT Tax payer people are at their mercy. But, time will change... We should never forget this people! for what they are. DO NOT give any information. They are the worst. And who cares? they can give my information whom ever they please!!! I hope they do. I DO NOT NEED ANY CREDIT. I DO NOT WANT ANY CREDIT. I HAVE NOTHING TO HIDE... AND I AM FORTUNATE! I HAVE OTHER CHOICES.. I CAN MOVE OUT OF THIS COUNTRY, AND THEY CAN CONTINUE WITH THEIR HARRASMENT!
Sorry for all the scam around us. Keep up and spred the information. Thanks

I got one of those mailings today to opt out -- and stupid me gave my ss #. I have excellent credit & hope they don't steal my identity! Can't believe I did that!

I did the same thing. What do I do now?????

I also received this mailing stating changes to my account. I don't have an account with this bank There letter addresses changes to my account the Processing Fee of $1.00 for paper statments got my attention ! I called the 800 ## the machine asked for an account number or my Social Security Number ! NEVER give your SOCIAL SECURITY number out espically to a machine !!

I got the same paper too. Wondering how did they get my Name and address.

I looked up these guys on BBB. They are rated A+ through them. They represent a very long list of retail operations- list is on the BBB site. I was in the middle of filing a complaint because I got a notice from them and didn't know who the heck they were, when I looked again at the very top of the notice- it said it was regarding changes to my Express credit card agreement. I thought I had cancelled long ago but it looks like I didn't.

Hope that helps some people figure out why they are getting mailings from this company. I definitely would agree that WFNNB should make it much clearer which retailer they are representing in these mailings.

Thanks for telling me to read the top of the letter addressed to me. I read 75% of the letter trying to figure out who these people were. I even called the number they had listed and got the same reply many others did. Through the internet, I found a direct number and planned to call them on Monday but your email telling me to read the first paragraph told me exactually who they represented. New York and Company, a clothing store's credit card has a zero balance with me but I will close it out immediately.

This was so helpful. Look at the first paragraph in bold, and it will tell you who WFNNB is representing.

Thank you thank you -- i read it several time and never noticed that the first paragraphs says what account. Thanks again
