I just got a call from that number also. The thing is I did fill out a credit app on B of A's website.
With it being a recording and not a real person though it makes it seem a bit fishy. I'm not calling them right now because I don't like giving my SS# out either.
Didn't leave a message, today, however, yesterday, another call came from this same number. We did get a message, then, but it was from Blockbuster, to inform that the movie my spouse rented was due back. What is odd is that all the reference for this number being for BofA or from a contractor used by BofA, our BofA credit card WAS the card used to purchase the Blockbuster rental. Odd! At the same time, I am late on my American Express payment, this month, so a call from them WOULD be anticipated. Same goes for Citi. I'm late on both of these cards, as of yesterday, however, the identical number did come up on caller ID, yesterday, with - at approximately the same time, per the voicemail "envelope" information - the aforementioned message ostensibly from Blockbuster. Don't know what to make of it all.
Just got a call from them - applied for a BofA CC yesterday. I don't answer numbers I don't know, and I'm not getting a voicemail. I definitely entered enough info into my application for them to approve or deny, so I'm not taking this call.
This is a scam. I called Bank of America directly and was told that they had gotten 30 calls that day before mine. If you ever give someone your Social Security number or any personal information they don't already know over the phone because they ask for it you may as well just sign a book of blank checks and mail it to them.
