Caller claimed Citi bank fraud department was calling me to check on a credit card application. I already have two Citi Cards and did not receive a text or email from Citi. So i called Citi and they said they did not contact me and I should report the person who called me.
I just got a call from this number telling me that this is from SEARS because some fraudulent activity, reference number 1635 the person leaving the message was call Sonia, I called I told them that I dont have a Sears account they told me that some one could open an account under my name but couldnt verify using only the reference number they need it my SS# of course I already knew that this is SCAM, just dont even contact this number. Scam POlice please do soemthing. I can see that this is an on going issue.
It was Citi Financial that called,, I have Vision electronics card that is through Citi Financial and they just wanted to confirm that I made a purchase couple of days ago and that it wasn't some else. That was all on my side of the call.
Message from Citibank fraud department. I had also received an email re fraudulent charges on my credit card. I checked activity on my account online and found 4 unauthorized charges that were pending. This call was a legitimate contact from Citibank.
