Scam/Fraud
5 months ago
I am not sure who the person named is (maybe someone has given the wrong phone number, but it isn’t for me). Based on other comments and since I do not have a barclaycard (if that is who it is as my message does not say) am marking this as a scam. Transcript of message left: “Mrs <name removed>. We've noticed activity on your account and would like to protect you against fraud. Please press any key so we can run through a quick fraud check.”

Barclaycard reporting an attempted fraudulent payment, they were able to confirm my address and that I had a linked account. This call was received after a text asking to confirm payments made where 2 recent payments were mine. I did not need to confirm any other details beyond my name and DOB. Caller is legitimate
