Golly I hope there are not people that get sucked into this one. I was also out today, but keep my radio on the news station and did not hear any of these ad's. Looks to me like this outfit is a GTZ. I looked quickly at the profile and just about all the float is short. <g>

this is actually profoundly un-funny. Metris (and others who do this, like mine and Tip's fave ABFI) make this stuff sound like its a CD with FDIC insurance. when in fact what you're buying is an unsecured obligation of a scumbag company backed by the full faith and credit of ultra-sub-prime unsecured credit card debt. there is nothing even remotely funny about this. where the f' are the regulators?? oh, i forgot, they are all quitting under cover of election results or at 5:30 on a Friday.
