Description

received a call saying they were fraud detection and did I make a purchase in the amount of 1,000.00 and one for amazon in the amount of 200some dollars. I stupidly gave them my dob. they told me they would send me a text with a verification number or e mail me one. after 10 minutes I hung up they called me back he gave me a false name, id number and fraud line phone number. I I hung up again and they called back. they asked how much of a card limit I had on the card. I finally ended the call with I will be contacting my credit union. I did immediately contacted my credit union to put a stop on the card. this was a horrible experience I usually am more aware of these calls I just was dumb about this one am concerned they have my dob
