It’s odd how a single spoofed number can flood inboxes while pretending to be a big regional bank. Callers repeatedly claim to be from Fifth Third Bank, use foreign accents, and demand personal data like birthdates or account numbers. Hang up immediately if you didn’t expect the call, never share sensitive information, and verify the request by calling the official bank number from a statement. Register the number with your carrier’s block list, report the incident to the FTC and the FCC, and consider a call‑screening app. Staying skeptical and blocking these spoofed attempts can stop the phishing cycle before it harms your finances.
Could you please report them again, as I have just received another call?
Repeated calls are being made, yet the caller remains silent...
A call was received on Sunday, but the details are unclear.
This number allegedly represented Chase Bank, but before providing any information, they asked for my birth date, which raised significant suspicions of a scam
Despite daily calls, the caller knows my name and requests my social security number verification.
After receiving multiple calls from this number, I finally answered, and they requested my date of birth. When I refused to provide it, they terminated the call. Notably, this was the second call I received on a Sunday, with the first call occurring at 8:40 that morning
The initial call featured an Indian accent claiming to represent 53 bank, but when I disputed this, they hung up; despite blocking the number, I still receive multiple calls daily.
I appreciate the information; this number has been calling day and night, and it's reassuring to know the context, especially since my payments are up to date.
Called briefly, no details. Meh.
Concerns arise because this bank is now associated with my mortgage
This number continus to call me, even though I've blocked it.
The frequency of calls is excessive, with 3 to 4 calls placed daily.
Daily calls are made, sometimes multiple times a day, at various hours.
Despite multiple requests, this company continues to call me.
I've been recieving calls multiple times a day, they claim I owe money, but when I contacted the real company, they said my account is fine and it's a scam.
This call is received daily at approximately the same time every morning.
Despite being informed that we are aware of their scamming activities, this number continues to call multiple times daily, requesting sensitive information like social security numbers, which is unnecessary since our bank already has this information.
Nothing but silence on the call, super annoying.
Repeated calls are made throughout the day, at all hours, including late at night, without any voicemail being left.
I can confirm this is not Fifth Third Bank, I called the number back and got a buisy signal, then I called the real Fifth Third Bank and they told me its a scam, so dont give them your SSN
A profesional recording , claimin to be from 5/3 Bank, asked for my account and social security numbew, but refused to provide it when I askd
This number is associated with Fifth Third Bank
Fortunately, this number belongs to the Fifth Third Bank Credit Card services, and they usualy contact me when I forget to make a payment, which is actuallly quite helpfull
The call from this number was ignored and no message was left, resulting in the number being blocked.
This number is asociated with 5/3 bank.
The caller, who claimed to be from Fifth Third Bank colections, asked for my social security number or account information, but I refused to provide it, as it seemed like a phishing attempt
To resolve any uncertainty, contacting your local branch directly is advisable. An individual with a Jersey accent, claiming to be from the main branch in Ohio, spoke with me over the phone. After expressing my intention to contact my local branch, the conversation was terminated. Upon notifying my local branch of this incident, they documented two suspicious numbers that had been in contact with me over a two-day period. Despite their initial unawareness of such activity, they agreed to investigate further. Notably, the caller ID displayed Fifth Third Bank on the first day, but indicated an unknown caller on the subsequent day. The best course of action is to either ignore these calls or block the numbers altogether. If you are confident in your account status, visiting your local branch or reporting the incident to them is recommended, as legitimate institutions do not demand personal information over the phone.
This number is associated with my mother's bank.
A recurring issue with this number involves daily calls, including Sundays before 9 am, sometimes as many as four times a day. Although a previous comment from 53rd bank helped clarify the scam, the calls persist, now often appearing as blocked. The pattern continues, unchanged.
The call was not acknowledged.
