Phishing scam targeting Missourians with bogus 'Card Services' calls, Koster warns
Jefferson City, Mo. - Attorney General Chris Koster is warning Missourians of a phishing scam disguised as an offer to lower their credit card interest rate. Consumers have contacted Koster's office saying a caller claims to be from a company called Card Services, asking them to enter their credit card number to see if they qualify for a better rate. This is simply an attempt by thieves to steal credit card numbers.
In the phone call, consumers are led to believe they're being contacted by their credit card company and they are asked to dial a number, usually 9, if they are interested in trying to get a lower interest rate. Koster says in phishing scams like this, with thieves fishing for personal information, the crooks can steal credit card numbers, use them in a matter of minutes through online purchases and run up big charges that appear later on the consumer's credit card statement.
"This is a typical phishing scam, in that it tries to play on consumers' emotions and excitement at the idea of saving money," Koster said. "But as always, consumers should never give out their personal information to anyone who contacts them."
Koster says consumers should only give out sensitive information, such as Social Security, bank account or credit card numbers, when they initiate the contact. He says any call claiming to be a financial institution or other trusted organization asking for personal information should be seen as a scam.
Consumers can report phishing, identity theft or other fraud at Koster's Consumer Protection Hotline, 1-800-392-8222 or his Web site, ago.mo.gov.
My guess is this is very likely a SCAM!
This AUTOMATED call came in on Monday, January 18, 2010 at 12:26 PM. We've received calls like this before.
At first you think it's your credit card company, but it's a company with a vague name trying to get you to
give out your credit card information supposedly to help you lower your credit card rate. I would not put
any trust in a company that does not allow its name to appear on the Caller ID. Hang up on them! I don't
know how they can call when we are on the Do Not Call Registry. There's no way to identify them to report
them for calling a Do Not Call registrant.
Rachel from Cardholder Services wants to lower my interest rates (recorded message)! When "Leah," a live person, got on the phone, she would not tell me the phone number or name of the company. SCAM!
"Rachel" has been calling me from a variety of numbers for more than one year. None of the numbers listed on caller ID work, they usually have a series of 000, like this one. Obviously, a legitimate company would not do this.
rude operators .... they dont remove you from the call list .... keep calling back ...
