Anyone heard of these guys? I just got a pre-approved credit offer and I think it's a scam but unsure, tried ripoff.com and their search engine isn't working right, right now(keeps telling me to try back in 2-3 minutes) I'm not sure I want to accept the offer even if not a scam, but would like to know for sure, and let others know also if it is a scam.

Is there any upfront fee in this credit offer? BTW, credit unions can be trusted with these types of offers. Also, keep in mind that there should not be any upfront fee before being approved for the offer. I gave you a general tip but you need to research specifically on this union in your area.

The fee is $37, fully refundable, which makes me think SCAM, and although they are using the Union Workers Credit Services, there is no mention of being a credit union.

Hi Paulisgril: I found this on google regarding this company...I am always weary about these offers:

Like I said in my first I wanted to know if it was a scam and let others know also. I definately do not need any more debt right now, I'm working on my pdl's and looking forward to being extremely broke this month in hopes of catching up after the bad month I had last month. I'm working up to putting my story out there for others and will do so in the next couple days, but the end of the pdl tunnel is near (I hope) Thanks Missy for the excellent info you provided.
