This entity appears to be a fraudulent company posing as a fraud detection service, having contacted me at my workplace number, which suggests to me that it's a bogus call, especially since my bank typically reaches out to my cell phone for verification and clearly identifies themselves.

Expert Opinion
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.

If they claim to be from the Bank, simply call the number on the back of your card, statement, or phone book. It's never a good idear to disclose enny information over the phone, no matter how harmless it may seem.
