I missed a call from this number, and they left a message asking me to call back, but they intentionally mumbled the phone number. My iPhone 7 Plus also flagged the call as a potential scam.
Scam alert: fake Kohl’s phone scams exposed
Summary — +18005645740
Expert Opinion
Avoid answering unknown calls that claim to be Kohl’s. These messages almost always request Social Security numbers, credit‑card data, or other personal info and try to create a sense of urgency. Hang up, block the number, and never confirm account details over the phone. Verify any Kohl’s communication by calling the official customer‑service line (855‑564‑5748) or by logging into your account online. Report the spoofed number to the FTC / FCC and to Kohl’s fraud team. Consider adding the caller to your phone’s Do‑Not‑Call list and enable carrier‑level spam filters. Staying cautious stops identity theft before it starts.

Didn't answer, no message left. Curious but probably nothing important.
Access is being denied to me
The call pertained to a Kohls charge card application.
After discovering this number on the back of my Kohl's charge card, an attempt was made to reactivate it for Christmas shopping; however, upon realizing the potential for fraud, the request to erase my information was made, though its effectiveness is uncertain
This is a clear case of a scam, as Kohls does not make outbound calls and the caller is requesting sensitive information such as social security numbers and credit card details.
After receiving an email with this number, which contained excessive personal information, I contacted Kohl's customer service and was informed that the email was a scam and not affiliated with the company
Beware of this number, as it is part of an identity theft scam. The scammer will try to obtain personal information, which can lead to credit account closures and security notices. Be cautious of official-looking letters, such as those from Kohls, that ask you to contact this number.
The same phone number was included in a letter I received, which seemed to be part of a larger scheme.

Despite the caller ID showing 1-800-564-5740, the automated message left on the voicemail instructed me to call Kohls at 1-888-814-3555, which appears to be a scam, as indicated by the comments under the report for the 1-888-814-3555 number.

The caller claimed to be from Kohls, and upon callback, I reached a call center likely based in India or the Philippines.

Apparently a joke about being the police
It seem you may have a balance
Following the opening of an account, the company consistently called to request additional information, prompting a request to cease contact or face police involvement; the interactions were deemed unnecessary and harassment-like
Its suspicious that a legit buisness would ask you to call them back and then ask for your social security number, somthing dont seem rite
Regarding a package delivery, Kohl's made contact.
