Late last week, a familiar buzz sounded from 877‑253‑8964, and many users wonder if it’s a genuine fraud alert or a phishing trap. The consensus points to a third‑party fraud detection service that banks sometimes employ to flag suspicious card activity. The safest play is to never give personal details to the caller; instead, hang up and call the number on the back of your card or your bank’s official website. Verify the case number they mention and let the bank confirm any hold or replacement. Treat any request for full account info as a red flag, and keep a log of call times for reference.
A call was received from this number claiming to be from my credit union's fraud detection department, but after investigating, it became clear that this was a phishing scam attempting to gather sensitive information.
Despite receiving a case number from them, it appears to be a fraudulent scheme, and my attempts to call back were unsuccessful, with the call ringing only a few times before ending, supposedly from a "fraud protection" service.
I can confirm that this call was legitimate, as it was from my bank's fraud detection department.
Another call was received today from this number.

After receiving a call from the Fraud Detection Center at 877-253-8964, it was dismissed as a potential scam, and a subsequent call to the bank confirmed no unusual account activity; however, a later call from the same center revealed declined charges on the debit card.
I recieved a call that sounded suspisous, i called back and got alot of automated message, then i hung up
For those concerned about the legitimacy of this number, it has been a valuable resource for me, as they have contacted me twice: once when my card was compromised and they quickly took action, and again when my recent activities triggered a security flag, prompting them to reach out and ensure my account's safety.
Legitimate call from Fulton Bank's fraud detection line, they were checking on debit card activity and left a voice mail with a phone number to call back and a case number.

Repeated calls to my cell phone from an unknown number have instructed me to contact 1-877-253-8964 regarding a case number and a John C Lendon card, allegedly from Wells Credit; however, after verifying with my banks, it appears to be a fraudulent scheme.
A robotic call was made claiming that my debit card had been frozen due to suspected fraudulent use, but according to my bank, this is not true.

I've recieved two calls from this number, both sounded like recorded messages, obvioulsy a fraudelent activity since they got my name wrong and mentioned a bank I dont use.
Despite multiple calls, this number only questioned one of three alleged transactions, and after holding for 10 minutes, they disconnected me, leading me to contact my institution directly to verify the legitimacy of their claims.
Upon receiving their call, I was asked to divulge sensitive information, which I declined to provide, noticing they only attempt to contact me outside banking hours and on weekends, so I will verify with my financial institution in the morning.
This message serves as a follow-up to my initial post

I recieved a call from this number and they recited the last 4 digit of my card, i called my financial institution directly and they verified it was legit but i advise you to never call back the number left on voice mail
If this was a legit number, you should be able to google it and find a company, but in my case, I dont have a debit card with the bank they mentioned, and my bank dont have my cell number, its probly a scam
This number is a third party fraud protection number, my son got the call, but we verified it with the member services rep
After returning the call, I found the inquiry to be legitimate, as they only discussed certain transactions without asking for additional personal information.

A voicemail from this number claimed to be an automated message from Pinnacle bank, reporting suspicious activity on a debit card, but the information provided was inacurate and didnt match any of our accounts.
For verification purposes, it is advisable to initially contact your bank, as they will confirm whether any issues have arisen, and subsequently, they may request that you call the provided 877 number, using the assigned case number to authenticate the interaction, thus providing a valuable service to the public.
