Same thing for me. Fraud alert and it was valid. Shut my card down and they sent me a new one.

I was skeptical, but called and found that this was fraud dept for Barclaycardus

It is a valid call. i didn't call the number they left or the number in the e-mail. I logged in and there was a fraud alert message and a charge for $10.69 from Gameboy.com or something like that. I called the number on their web site that they gave me. they cancelled the card and will issue another!

Legitimate call.....Visa calling to make sure we made a purchase outside US.

Got several calls, finally investigated number. Said there was suspicious activity on my Barclay card. Called Barclay and they confirmed that there was a large charge against our card that turned out to be fraudulent!

I received a call from this number. Around the holidays this company is connected with the fraud department on major credit cards and any large purchases are flagged. They just call and it's an automated recorded where you press 1 to verify the phone number associated with your account, and then 1 again if you wish to verify the charge is legitimate. I love that my credit card does this. Helps keep fraud down!

This is a legitimate number from credit card fraud protection to inform you of detection of suspicious card activity.

I also got a call from this service - my Barclay's Master Card had a $5.85 charge from a "bookstore in Washington." I live in Vermont. Was alarmed until I remembered that there's this little company called Amazon that I had visited the night before...
The number is legitimate and they do not ask you any protected information, just want you to confirm or deny a transaction they flagged as fraudulent. If you do not call, your card may get cut off.

Call from visa fault verification
| John Kennedy 2011-03-17 23:34:38 Unknown |
I got a message on my home answering machine with an 800 number and a case # to call back, regarding a possible fraud on my credit card. (Barclay Credit Cards). I did NOT call the 800 number back they left me, but instead called the 800 number on the back of my credit card. It was a legit call and the automated teller just asked me me verify a weird internet purchase I made with the credit card. No big deal.

They called and I hung up on them.

I am a police dispatcher. They've called twice today so far. As soon as I answer and they hear the words "Police", they hang up. On call back they don't answer. Very sketchy.

I call several calls from this number. I also received an email telling me of possible illegal use of my Visa card. I wasn't sure if this was real or phishing for my info. So I logged onto my Visa account and sure enough a big WARNING appeared. It turns out my Visa account HAD been used without my permission - I closed that Visa account.
| Paige 2009-11-03 14:31:48 Unknown |
I just got another call from this same number and heard the whole call. The message says "This is the Futuretrust Mastercard Fraud Detection Unit calling to verify the recent activity on your Mastercard ending in ...."
They provide a case# and say to call back the 800-279-7061 number to verify recent activity.
