passportusa.org is garbage!

Passportusa.org advertises "Apply Online" however once you fill out the form and purchase it for $38.00 you must save it to your computer, print it, get your photo taken and then mail it all to the government along with your old passport. You are paying them for using their program to fill out the form which you can pick up for free at the US Post Office or other passport facilities.
They got me this time.

  7. REPORT THIS SCAM!
    Here is info in how to demand the destruction of your info, if they answer your request!
    https://passportusa.org/privacy#a04

    This site is so crooked that even the email address shows as an image making it more difficult click on it and email them - here is the email: suuport@passportusa.org in case you want to write them. I just sent them an email and not sure if I will get an answer... I doubt it.

    Report this fake site to FTC
    https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/#crnt&panel1-1

    This site is misleading and falsely represents a government service. In the meantime, put alerts in your credit.

  8. Has anyone notice and fraudulent activity wit their SS# or credit cards after using this site? That's my main concern. I realized after filling out the form online prior to submitting payment that this was a scam. The renewal fee was too low which triggered this form me. I deleted my information from the site and my account, but does the information really delete. This is doubt and am very concern, Any info would be greatly appreciated!!!

    1. I just realized the scam and called my credit card to stop payment and issue a new card. I paid for the passport with a check and mailed application by USPS. the credit card company is also monitoring three credit cos. for three months. Did you get your passport from the State Department? Thank you.
