Had a phonecall left on my home answer machine saying it was barclays bank fraud team and to ring them back on 0800 389 1652 so went on the net and couldnt really find that much about the number just a few blog entries about people confused whether it was a scam number or not. So i tried my online bank account and wouldnt log in.
So i decided to ring the number, all seemed quite genuine to me. The women asked where i was on such and such a date, i said at home and she said no i was somewhere else. So i remembered it was when I was on holidays. Well turns out somehow someone in San Francisco had been trying to use my card details, 2 transactions failed, 1 on some random website and another on itunes. Found it all quite bizarre tbh!
one thing i still dont understand is why isnt that number listed on barclays website?
