Recently, over the last few weeks or maybe the last month or so, I've been receiving unsolicited phone calls from an 800 number or some number in another state. The person on the phone says that "my credit card has been compromised" and then asks me to key in my information on the phone. The caller doesn't identify what company he or she is with. Needless to say, though, I've not provided any information.
I've called my credit card companies and other creditors and given them the phone numbers. They've told me that nothing is wrong with my account. I've also gone to the credit bureau websites and filed fraud alerts.
Has this been happening to anyone? Does anyone know of a scam like this?
