The 844‑682‑4502 line is most often linked to First Data’s fraud‑prevention service that banks outsource for card alerts. When you get a call or voicemail claiming suspicious activity, verify the call yourself by hanging up and dialing the number on the back of your card or your bank’s official website. Never give personal info to an unsolicited caller, especially if they ask for your full SSN, PIN, or password. If the call sounds off—poor grammar, urgent pressure, or a request to click a link—treat it as a possible scam. When in doubt, contact your bank directly; they can confirm whether the number is legitimate for that specific alert.

This appears to be related to protecting against fraudulent activities
The caller claimed my card was frozen due to suspisous activty, but everything is fine with my card and theres no suspcious activty except for their call
It is not necessarily a scam; although I was initially suspicious, I contacted my bank, which directed me to their fraud detection department, and it was discovered that someone had obtained my card number and was using this number to contact me, highlighting the importance of verifying the authenticity of such calls through direct contact with one's bank.
The situation is amusing, given the context.
