The Arkansas Attorney General`s office sued
an Oklahoma company today, saying the company had sold blank credit
card applications to Arkansans.
The state said Credit Now Incorporated of Tulsa, Oklahoma, sold
the applications for 149 dollars each.
The office named the company and owner Edwin M. Harris in the
lawsuit. It says 99 Arkansans were defrauded after they responded
to a radio advertisement offering unsecured credit cards with
minimal requirements.
The attorney general`s office said all the people received was a
blank application that are easily obtained for free.
The state seeks restitution and civil penalties. It said Credit
Now never had the authority to issue credit cards and did not
provide assistance to the customers after sending them the forms.
