I received a call from an 800 number and she said there was possible fraudulent activity on my credit card, and they need to verify the purchase. I replied "what is your extension number, I will call the number on the back of the card". She gave me an extension, I called the number on my card, and punched in that extension. Same lady answered. She asked if I was in Italy purchasing a full scuba diving set of equipment. I assured her, I was at home, and I will never buy scuba gear. The shut down that card, and send a new card via FedEx.
I had one call from a scammer claiming my PayPal account was in need of updating. I knew it was pure BS. and I kept him on the phone asking stupid questions, and had to think hard as to the next stupid question. He gave up after 20 minutes and I was trying hard not to laugh.
