She’s got $2.1 million, and buys a used minivan.

I tried to put a new car on a credit card and the dealer refused. He took my check instead. The amount was around $20,000 after trade in.

I wanted the points but he didn't want to pay the Visa charge he would incur. I believe it might be difficult to find anyone who would let you charge that kind of money.

The woman made a cash advance on her visa to get the used one, I don't know if she could have gotten a large enough cash advance to get a new one.

The beauty of her scheme is that she may serve two years for the crime and she will be ordered to repay the $150,000 but good luck to anyone trying to collect it. No way she would have ever earned that much money in two years. She had a fun time while it lasted, now it's time to pay the piper.

You needed a Black American-Express credit card!
I thought all Freepers had one. LOL/Sarc

” Interestingly, the myth predated the card. Doug Smith, director of American Express Europe, told snopes.com, “There had been rumors going around that we had this ultra-exclusive black card for elite customers. It wasn’t true, but we decided to capitalize on the idea anyway. So far we’ve had a customer buy a Bentley and another charter a jet.” (Yes, someone bought a Bentley — a car that costs between $200,000 and $400,000 — with a charge card!)”
