"Heather" calling from card services - there is NOTHING wrong with my account, but they need to URGENTLY speak to me about lowering my interest rates... Ummmm, yea, I just fell off the turnip truck. Sadly, they found my home number as well as my cell.... lol
the automated caller purported to be "card member services" saying that I was eligible for a better interest rate on my credit card. I am pretty sure that this was a fishing call trying to solicit CC info or a Soc. Sec. #. I did press "2" to discontinue calls and was connected to a live person, but I did not speak to them. I promptly blocked this caller from calling me again.
**DO NOT GIVE OUT PERSONAL INFO TO PEOPLE WHO CALL YOU!!**** Even if they claim to be from your bank or CC company. If they have a LEGITIMATE issue that they need you to respond to they will direct you to their customer service line that is on their published website, or on verifiable information you have already received from the company. They will NOTcall you to ask for account numbers or personal info. This would be detrimental to their own business as well as to you.
WARNING--BEWARE!! These callers are B I G credit card criminals, known as the card service scammers! Under NO circumstances, give these lowlifes your credit card number, or you will regret it forever!
