Description

I called what I thought was Spectrum due to outage of internet services. I called 850 520 4907 and they said due to outage I was entitled to a credit. They asked for name, address and I stated that they should have that information already. The person said in order to get to the IT department they needed this information first. I gave it. They then asked for banking info to have account credited. I kept saying I was uncomfortable giving this information, he stated it was OK. That the call was being recorded and they would not give out the information. All I wanted was my internet fixed so unfortunately, I gave him my bank information. They provided me with a confirmation #. I felt very uncomfortable after they hung up that I immediately called my bank and had a hold put on my account. I then went up to the bank and closed my account. At this point, nothing has hit my account, going in or out by this scammer. But I am not sure what they intend to do with this information. I just wanted to alert others. BEWARE
