Business ProfileforMasterCard International

I applied for a credit card from MasterCard in which the information required of me included a social security card number. Since my social security card is lawfully considered a credit card as per 15 U.S. Code 1602 I, and I received no benefits from the transaction upon denial, the transaction is considered fraudulent because it is by definition an unauthorized use of my credit card per 15 U.S. Code 1602p. Ive attached these laws in greater detail for you to review below:Under 15 U.S. Code 1602 i- The term credit card means any card, plate, coupon book or other credit device existing for the purpose of obtaining money, property, labor, or services on credit.15 U.S. Code 1602p - The term unauthorized use, as used in section 1643 of this title, means a use of a credit card by a person other than the cardholder who does not have actual, implied, or apparent authority for such use and from which the cardholder receives no benefit.16 CFR *****c - A person who, in the ordinary course of business, lends purchase money or finances the sale of goods or services to consumers on a deferred payment basis; Provided, such person is not acting, for the purposes of a particular transaction, in the capacity of a credit card issuer.18 U.S. Code 1341 - Whoever, having devised or intending to devise any scheme or artifice to defraud, or for obtaining money or property by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises, or to sell, dispose of, **************, alter, give away, distribute, supply, or furnish or procure for unlawful use any counterfeit or spurious coin, obligation, security, or other article, or anything represented to be or intimidated or held out to be such counterfeit or spurious article, for the purpose of executing such scheme or artifice or attempting so to do.
