Sam's Club tricked me into applying for a new credit card

I was at Sam's Club register checking out when the cashier girl asked if she can look at my card to "scan it" to see if I qualify for an upgrade . I was thinking she was referring to my Sam"s Club membership upgrade. She told me to enter my info which did ask for my social and household income. In hindsight, it was such a red flag, but I've never had a company blindsid me by applying for their credit card without my full knowledge so it was not on my radar at the time - she essentially submitted an application without me explicitly telling her I wanted to apply . I felt so scammed as soon as she told me I will be receiving a new credit card in 7-10 business days. Is this shady tactic grounds for a lawsuit?
