Got unwanted call from 833-379-1894?
Said my credit card was put on hold because of fraudulant activity. It was a robocall telling me to call this number. Shows up as 'unknown name' on my CallerID ~which alone makes me suspicious. So far, they've called 2X in about ½ hour. I might have to block if they don't stop. I'd call my bank to verify before I called that phone # back. This was conducted on a landline. I don't have an update as of yet. But I'm almost positive it's a scam. I'll call my bank when it opens to see if there's a hold on my debit card ~P.S. I don't own a credit card, so another suspicious thing is that they refer to the card as 'credit card' instead of 'bank card'.
