Unwanted credit cards
(NC)—If you receive a credit card in the mail that you didn't order,
here, according to information on Industry Canada's Consumer
Information Gateway website, is what you should do:

Consumers are not liable for a credit card they did not request.
However, you should destroy any unsolicited credit cards
immediately. Using the credit card constitutes acceptance of the
card. If you use the card, you will have to pay the bill. Similarly,
do not cash small cheques that are sent to you without reading the
small print. Doing so often locks you into paying for products or
services you may not wish to buy.

For more information on unwanted credit cards, and other
questionable marketing practices, visit ConsumerInformation.ca .
It's a Web site created by federal, provincial, territorial
governments and their partners specifically to provide Canadians
with convenient, one-stop access to hundreds of objective, reliable,
current consumer information sources.
