Reported to the FTC

Rather than immediately going to the interweb to say something is a scam, I decided to call Huntington customer service to validate. Turns out this Becka person does indeed work for Huntington - in their sales department. The call (or message left) may be deliberately cryptic, but it's definitely bad protocol during a time when scammers are rampant. When in doubt, call the companies you do business with directly, Huntington's customer service number is 800-480-2265.
A "relationship manager" named Becka Steffy calling to discuss information with me from Huntington Bank's corporate office in Akron OH. I didn't answer so she left that as a message. Huntington Bank never calls, so definitely a scam, but a very legit sounding scam.
