Expert Opinion

It seems like +18004800186 is a number associated with a widespread scam involving fraudulent credit card applications. Users report receiving letters from various retailers, like Walmart, Lowe’s, and others, thanking them for applications they never made. The letters often request a call to +18004800186 to provide additional information, such as a Social Security number, to complete the application process. Many users have flagged this as a phishing attempt, designed to steal personal information. If you receive such a letter, do not call the number. Instead, contact the retailer directly using a verified phone number from their official website. Also, place a fraud alert on your credit report with the major credit bureaus (Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion) to protect yourself from identity theft. Stay vigilant and cautious with your personal information.
