Why banks use third‑party fraud detection calls

A message was left on my husband's phone, claiming to be about fraudulent charges on my account. The message included my name, the last four digits of my debit card, and a transaction number. I contacted my bank using the number on the back of my card and verified the suspicious charge.

I have been inundated with calls from this number claiming that my Dollar bank card is at risk due to fraudulent activity, which is entirely false.

After reciving a call from this number, i found multiple unautorized charges on my bank account, including one for over $1,000

Beware of this number, it's a blatant scam attempting to steal your identity and bank information by posing as a bank.

This is definitly a SCAM, if it was a legit company, they would have a 1-800 number, you should call your bank first, dont fall for this

It is essential to exercise caution when sharing personal and financial information over the phone or online, as scammers can easily obtain partial credit card details

Regularly checking your bank statements and phone apps can help identify potential theft attempts, including those made after online or offline purchases

This was clearly a scam call, claiming to be AT&T Federal Credit Union and asking me to call back at this number, or an alternitive number for international purposies

I wholeheartedly agree, this is not legitimate.

The automated system calling from (877) 253-8964 is not legitimate. They requested personal information for verification purposes, claiming to be the fraud department of my bank. However, after verifying with my bank, it was confirmed that there was no fraudulent activity, and the call was not from their actual fraud department. Therefore, I strongly advise against providing personal information over the phone and recommend verifying such claims directly with your bank.

After receiving a call from this number regarding supposed fraudulent charges, I ended the call, recalling that my friend had recently fallen victim to a similar scam. I then contacted my bank using the number on the back of my card and discovered that someone had attempted to make a significant purchase in the UK, which my bank had fortunately blocked.

Obviusly a scam!!!!!! Ignoire what others have said trying to advace this con game. I contacted both of my banks directly as a precuation. Any legitmate fraud alert call from a reputible company would not leave such a "veiled" mesage.

A message was left on my system, indicating a scam attempt with a case ID and random numbers, but no legitimate identifiers were provided. This tactic is unprofessional and clearly a scam.
