I got a call on my cell phone last night about 7:45 from an unknown number with a very bad computerized female voice saying that my account had been closed due to unusual activity and to speak to a customer service rep to press 1....well anytime I have received a call from my bank or CC company, it always had a number so I was weary and just hung up...
I checked all my accounts this morning and all are fine with no activity other than what I had used on them....I think this was a ploy to get password and account information....the kicker was it didnt say what bank or account or CC had unusual activity...

Just thought I would pass this along to you, my Family!!!

I've been getting a call from 757-990-8981 twice daily now. Looked it up on the web and there have been all kinds of BS from the same number.

Yeah I get anonymous emails saying my "account" info has been compromised so I should prove my identity by replying with my social security number, DOB, etc. The tougher economic times get, the more desperate criminals get. May He help us all.
