We just received a similar call. Caller ID came up 766 but a recorded message stated that "This is the security department of Florida Credit Union. Please call (520) 720-0087."
The call came into one of our cell numbers. We do have an FCU Visa but they do not have our cell numbers on file.
Calling the number you are asked to enter 1 to "reactivate your card" and 2 to "disconnect". Entering "1" prompts you to enter your CC number. I entered 16 bogus digits but the automated response is able to distinguish valid VISA numbers.
I would guess that this is an elaborate phishing attempt. I'll do a bit more research on that area code now. Updates later.
