I just received a call from this number. I was immidiately suspicious of the electronic computerized voiceover telling me that there was fraudulant activity on my Visa. The automataed message did not state which Visa or company they were affiliated with. This is DEFINETELY A FRAUD. No reputable company would handle fraudulant activity in this manner by making you enter your full credit card information or blatantly giving out your full name and / or social security number. A reputable bank or financial institution would identify themselves first by giving their name, their company, and stating clearly why they are calling and NOT asking for full account information over the phone. Do not ever give out information in this manner; and if in doubt, simply hang up and let the Better Bussines Bureau know this has happened to you.
Got a call on my cell phone requesting information, that my debit card had been suspended. The company was Southern ..... but couldn't make it out. Will pay more attention when they try me again.
It's clearly a scam.
I too received a call from this number automated message saying my account had been frozen. Then it asked me to enter my 16 digit card number and exp date to reactivate. I didn't do it!
I too got a phone call this evening (Sunday evening, really?) It was a recording saying that my account had been frozen bc of fraudulent charges and to press one to be transferred to the security dept. I just hung up bc it sounded like a scam and then when I googled the number this popped up..what a bunch of [***]. Some nerve that people have!
I have always been told that you should never give anyone that calls you from an unrecognizable number any of your personal information, like your entire social security number or your card number over the phone, especially to a company that would already have all that information and shouldn't be asking you for it.
