Caller stated he was from Barclays, and knew some things about my family's credit card, but his questions were odd and asked me to verify my date of birth and street address, which Barclays had never done before. After I ended the call, I called the # on the back of my credit card, explained the call I'd just received, and they transferred me to Security. They said that they didn't have a record of any calls being made to me, and stated that they'd never ask those types of questions. It was someone phishing for info.
its a scam claiming to be barclays i never gave anyone my number i have a different public number. They wanted to verify if i opened a credit card account with them. But for them to verify i had to give them my name lol u dont know my name? Lol nice try! Scammers glad i have an iphone placed the caller on block n never heard from them again
Never give any info of any kind to anyone calling you. If you think it could be legit hang up and call the company directly!
You can make any number you want appear on the person's phone you're calling.
