Following a similar experience, I filed a complaint with PNC's abuse department, but they responded stating it was legitimate, which I believe to be an error, possibly due to spoofing
PNC Bank Spoof Alert: Stop the Fake Debt Calls!
Summary — +18002827541
Expert Opinion
It’s strange how a single 1‑800 number masquerades as PNC Bank, National City, and generic card services all at once, flooding inboxes with fake debt‑forgiveness offers. The pattern shows a classic spoofed‑bank scam: callers display familiar logos, claim urgent account issues, and pressure you to press 1 or provide personal data. Never share passwords, Social Security numbers, or credit‑card details on unsolicited calls. Hang up immediately, block the number in your phone, and report it to the FTC or your carrier’s robocall‑blocking service. If you need to verify a claim, call the official bank number from a trusted source, not the one that called.
