Who is behind this number??

Just got a call that caller ID showed (twice?!) as from 201-253-0000 (actually as 20125300001) with a recording saying my MasterCard debit card had been locked and to press 1 to be transferred to their security department to unlock it.  I pressed 1, got the same recorded voice telling me to enter my MasterCard number.  At that point, I hung up.  There are entries in the 800notes database for similar calls from 734-585-7184 and 203-322-9876 (and maybe other numbers).

My dad just got this same phone call on his cell phone.Had my mom scared out of her mind, thinking that someone had frozen their acct.  She called me in a panic.  Glad to know it was a scam.

Also just received the same above-mentioned call, and I don't even use mastercard.

Caller ID showed 201-253-000001
Left voicemail saying Epic Card  or Epi-Card deactivated my Mastercard due to security reasons & to press 1 to reactivate.  I don't have a credit card with them.  After researching the number it was determined this is a SCAM.
