Get a call supposedly from Citibank fraud stating that someone tried to open an account with my info. Operator is some foreign woman I can barely understand and needs my social security number to confirm who I am. I told her I wasn't giving it to her and she gets pissed. She passes me on to 4 more operators that I cant understand. Finally call the number on the back of my card and after 3 more "Peggy's", I reach the fraud department and a 100% English speaking operator. Turns out the original message was legit and some fricker named Quincy was trying to open an account. One hour and 45 minutes later and 9 operators they terminate the application. Why not just terminate it when I said I didn't complete a new application?

No way in hell they asked you for your social security number over the phone to confirm who you are if it was legitimate.

Well it's certainly possible that the person that initially called was working with "Quincy" as a two-sided fraud approach, one trying to open an account with his info, and one trying to phish him.

Would you like to make a bet? They gave me the last 4 digits and asked me to complete it.

Yeah. I thought that was against policy of all of these major corporations. They shouldn't solicit that information if they are contacting you. Because of obvious phishing scam security reasons. They might if you call them. Whole thing sounds phishy.

I can't even understand your head coach. And he's from Louisiana. What's your point?

That is different than calling you and bluntly asking for your entire social security like you implied in your OP.

You want Trump to intervene with more private businesses?
Posted on 1/11/17 at 3:35 pm to slackster
Even that sounds kind of phishy. Like someone could have broken into one of your accounts and had seen partially sensored info like XXX-XX-9999, and just used the social engineering to make it seem like having that much info will get your trust.

It is definitely fishy, but more plausible than someone outright asking for your entire social security number when they called you about a fraud issue.

why not terminate it when someone named qunicy tried to open an account.
Reminds me of one of my events, except he succeeded.
Guy opens a 100k line of credit. Changed address, mothers maiden, birth date and actual name(first and middle), all with a bank I was doing business with at the time.
They kindly let me know they thought it was fraud and mailed me a letter, but they opened the LOC anyways. Guy spent 68k before they shut it down.

Or not, not impressed with Donald J. Trump, more impressed with Alec Baldwin as Donald J. Trump.

NO ONE is going to call from fraud prevention and ask for your full SSN. If the person on the other end of the line had the last 4 digits, its likely because they hacked into one of your accounts and can see the last 4, but everything else is hidden. The person who called you was probably a co-conspirator with "Quincy" and them pretending to be with Citibank fraud prevention was a phishing scheme in an attempt to get you to panic and give them your full SSN.

How did the discern the name 'Quincy' if they were trying to open an account with your info? Unless your name is Quincy?

Damn, all that effort to get 60 bucks

Just want to chime in that I've worked for a few companies that have your social and they are NEVER allowed to call you and solicit your social. Most times, they don't even have access to it, even I'm the higher up offices. I not calling OP a liar, I think Peggie may have fricked up pretty bigly.

OK, Quincy.
