> Phone Phishing, Data Breaches, and Banking Scams

Just read an article entitled > Phone Phishing, Data Breaches, and Banking Scams which talks about Jon Oliver (Senior Architect) at the company who got a phone call which seemed to be a real phone call. I don’t know if I have talked about phone calls and scams on the blog, but this is a real reminder. Criminals are still using the old fassion telephone as well as the new technology. Be on guard. If you don’t have an account with the supposed company, than don’t respond. I’d do what John did and say that he doesn’t have an active account. I’d also tell them I’d call the bank myself to confirm. If there’s real fraud, your card issuing company should be in touch.
