Try this.

$.post({
    url: "https://api.fullcontact.com/v2/person.vcf",
    type: "POST",
    data: {
             apiKey: "50211c64734215gh",
             vcard: {
                VERSION: "3.0",
            N: "Lorang;Bart",
            FN: "Bart Lorang",
            ORG: "FullContact",
            TITLE: "Co-Founder & CEO"
                ....
                ...
             }
     }  
});

Try this:

var vcardString = 'your vcard string here';

$.post({
    url: "https://api.fullcontact.com/v2/person.vcf",
    type: "POST",
    data: {
             apiKey: "YOUR KEY HERE",
             vcard: vcardString
    }
});

The response will contain the raw vCard text.

Try using the FullContact jQuery Plugin

    var vcard = "BEGIN:VCARD\nVERSION:3.0\nEMAIL;TYPE=INTERNET:lorangb@gmail.com\nEND:VCARD";
    $.fullcontact.enrichVCard('YOUR API KEY',vcard,function(enrichedVCard){
           console.log(enrichedVCard);
    });
