404-697-3127: Been getting this call a couple times a week for 3 weeks now on my unlisted, unpublished phone number(I have caller id). It's a guy's voice saying he is from American Express with an urgent message & to call another number with your account info ready. WARNING TO ALL! THIS IS A PHISHING SCAM TRYING TO SCARE YOU TO CALL THEM AND GIVE YOUR AMEX CREDIT CARD NUMBER. Do not call back this number or any number this person tells you to call. Other numbers he uses even has American Express on my caller id. I checked w/ AMEX and it is not them. They never call customers saying to call them back w/ your credit card number ready. If there is any suspicious activity on your card & they catch it they will automatically put a hold on your card & wait for you to contact them. It is relatively easy now to disguise your id and say whatever you want it to say on the party your calling caller id. Once again , this is NOT american express. It is a scam artist trying to hook you into giving them your account info. It looks like this number is based in Georgia, USA. (REPORT THIS PERSON TO THE PROPER AUTHORITIES. DO NOT GIVE ANY PERSONAL INFO TO THIS SCAMMER.)

404-697-3127 Got the call today...a guy says he is from American Express...Cell Phone GA...DO NOT give any info to this caller!

I just got the same call from the same number.  I don't even have AmEx.

SAME CALL FROM THE PERSON. THANKS FOR POSTING. IT IS A SCAM

This is a phishing scam and is NOT from American Express. Check their phone numbers on their (American Express) website and the back of your AMEX credit card and you will see that it is different. The prerecorded message is always the same:

"THIS IS AMERICAN EXPRESS CALLING ABOUT A VERY IMPORTANT BUSINESS MATTER, YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER IS URGENTLY NEEDED BY THE END OF THE DAY, PLEASE CALL US AT 1-800-678-0738, AND PLEASE HAVE YOUR AMERICAN EXPRESS ACCOUNT AVAILABLE WHEN YOU CALL, WE CAN BE REACHED 24 HOURS A DAY, THANK YOU."

The phone numbers he calls from are the following:
(215) 873-3443
(404) 697-3127
(718) 564-3261
(954) 308-5595
(954) 503-1800

These phone numbers seem to be from cell phones and it seems there are many people reporting this possible scam on various websites.

This/these scammer(s) is/are relentless and will call 2-3 times a week, 2-3 times a day for months at a time.

IF YOU RECEIVE THEIR CALL, MAKE NOTE OF IT (time called, cell number used), AND REPORT IT TO THE FOLLOWING AUTHORITIES:
