Expert Opinion

Be wary of calls that pop up out of the blue asking whether your business accepts credit cards, especially American Express. These probes often aim to verify a valid number for future fraud or to harvest contact info for unsolicited pitches. The script you heard—repeating the same question and hanging up—matches known payment‑verification scams that prey on small or unlisted lines. Never confirm payment methods to unknown callers, and hang up immediately. If the call seems suspicious, block the number, report it to your phone carrier, and log the incident in a call‑tracking tool.
