Capitol One's false advertising

Received a credit card solicitation from Capitol One disguised as a bill.

SIGNATURE REQUIRED. OPEN IMMEDIATELY.

Cut that part of the envelope out, wrote on it: "No, it's not. Don't send any more false advertising." and mailed it back.

So, Pat W. Johnston, Director of New Accounts, Capital One, PO Box 52149 Richmond, VA 23295-0001, you've been warned.

And no, I'm not scared of the bar coded & warning on the envelope flap.

WARNING: TAMPERING WITH THIS ENVELOPE OR ITS CONTENTS MAY RESULT IN LEGAL ACTION

Bring on your lawyers - I'll just refer them to the Federal Trade Commission.
