Description
A man called, said he was from Spectrum. So I gave him my debit card info, which he asked for. He said he wanted payment of $68 today. I'm glad I didn't have money in the bank but I get my Social Security check on Thursday, I called my bank and cancelled my debit card. They are rotten ********. It was a foreigner from Nigeria (or sounded like it). I'm glad they didn't get any money!! I also contacted the real Spectrum, to report this. They said it was a scam. You should warn others.
