Guy calls claiming he works for a credit card verification office and asks me to tell him the expiry date of my credit card. When I asked him how I could verify who he was and that I'd rather call the credit card office myself, he kept telling me his name, title and badge number, insisting that the credit card expiry date is not secret information. I asked him to give me the number of the credit card number in question, which he couldn't do, so I hung up on him. When I reviewed the number he was calling from, it was this number and not a 1-800 as he was claiming.
