Expert Opinion
Block the number if you receive an unexpected call from 1‑855‑272‑1210. Treat any unsolicited request for personal information with suspicion, especially when the caller claims to be from RBC. Hang up, then independently verify the call by contacting the bank using the official phone number on its website or your account statement. Do not click links or download files from unknown callers. Add the number to your phone’s spam list and report it to the FTC and your carrier. Keep a log of the call details in case you need to file a complaint with the bank’s fraud department.
