Thankfully I was sitting in front of my computer when I received this call and was able to research the phone #613-907-1579. He said he was from Visa and Mastercard company and MCS Programs in Tacoma Washington. The exact same scenerio as "credit cards holder" above, so I won't retype. Was actually put through IMMEDIATELY to the Supervisor. When I asked him what they wanted from me, he said the expiry date on my cards...I then hung up. Thanks to all who post to save us from these scammers.
I got a phone call from an east indian guy at this number. Says he works for Mastercard Visa Account services. I said which Mastercard or which Visa? He repeated, I hung up on him. 5 minutes later received a call from 999-333-5252 (see comments under that number also)
I got a call from a woman with an accent that made it hard to understand her. Supposedly about my getting a lower interest rate on my credit card, either Visa or Master Card. Wanted to know the bank that issued it, the credit limit, the expiry date. All to verify that I was the owner of the card. Then they wanted the security code. I hung up on them at that point. They called back almost immediately from the same number. I did not answer.
