Now I find that they offer them to anyone. I have a phone that is listed in a name that is not my own and in a name that has no (to my knowledge) credit rating. The other day, that name received an offer to "Preferred Status" to apply for an American Express credit card. -- Lee Dickey, University of Waterloo.
