A few minutes ago, I received a call from an "Unknown" number on my cell phone. The person said that he was so and so with "Client services." Client services of what? He didn't say. He then said he was calling about the overdrafts at bank of America.
At which point I said "client services?" He then asked me did you not know about these? I said I had an account I closed because B. O. A. wouldn't do anything about the fraud that I was victim of.
His reply was that for fraud I have to fill out a report. I told him that I told the branch my story and they said that they couldn't do anything, because... He interupted and laughed, saying I can see why i am calling. At which time I said I didn't believe he was who he claimed, and hung up on him. He certainly wasn't interested in listening with his constant interrupting, besides there was to many indications he was lying.
I then looked up the phone number on B. O. A. website and told them about the call. The operator who I spoke with said that she looked and there was no client services to even direct me to, plus B. o.A.'s number would not be blocked. Blocking the number by an agency such as this would be a violation of the law in several states including Kansas. Further proof that the guy was lying.
So with out question someone was trying to pull a con job on me and it simply didn't work. Could he have been calling based on information he obtained in this very blog?

spooky! maybe they got your number from the domain name contact information in the DNS database. i'd like to give such crooks a punch in the face.
I was thinking here because I had been so critical and gave so many details of my problems with B.o.A.
After reading this:

I noticed your phone number on the blog! get rid of that... why give out your phone number when you have personal account information posted on your site (names and balances), if anything it will save you time by preventing such calls.
