Who called from 6043496225

Scam!

This guy called me from "Shoppers Drug Mart" (on 2013-09-06) telling me that I had won a free vacation, and then asked me for my credit card information, but not my name. He also didn't ask for me, or call me by my name, which he would have if he was from Shoppers. And, i'm pretty sure that it is a cell phone.

(I know this is a while after the fact, but better late than never, I just found this website)

Fraudulent Contest / Phone Scam

August 15, 2013


Shoppers Drug Mart is warning customers of a fraudulent contest and phone scam. Several people have received an automated phone call claiming that you won a vacation from Shoppers Drug Mart. It then asks if you agree or disagree. If you select agree, you are transferred to a live caller who will ask for your credit card information to hold your hotel room. This is fraudulent and not authorized by Shoppers Drug Mart, nor is this a Shoppers Drug Mart contest.

Shoppers Drug Mart would never ask for your credit card information over the phone. If you have concerns regarding your personal information, call your credit card provider immediately. Shoppers Drug Mart is currently investigating this fraudulent activity and the authorities are involved.

Shoppers Drug Mart customers affected by this fraudulent activity are encouraged to file a report directly to RCMP Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre (Phone Busters) at 1-888-495-8501 or email [email protected].
