I received a call on my cell phone on 07/09/2014 from number 73638699 at 1:33pm PST. They did not leave a voice mail, therefore I do not return the call. Good thing since this is a scam. I searched the number and it lead me to this forum.

Just got a call from this number 73638699, didn't pick up because it was a strange number. This is the 2nd time - last call was 3 days ago (9/5)

Just got a call from this number at 6:53 AM saying that my BofA debit card had been frozen. It asked me to enter my 16-digit debit card number. I entered zeros all three times (I kept messing up, apparently) and then finally hung up on me. They tried this with me on Friday (three days ago) with my non-existent US Bank debit card.

I also got this call to my cell phone this morning, indicating that my US Bank debit card had been lost or stolen and that I should press 1 and enter my 16 digit card number...well, I was half asleep,
I pressed 1 and then hung up!! I don't have a US Bank debit card!! My husband said he got a call to his cell phone similar to this on Friday, he was awake and simply hung up, his bank and not US BANK, doesn't have his cell phone number.

L.A. area. Just got the call saying my Debit MasterCard had been deactivated. To reactivate press 1 to speak to our security department. I've been in the process of receiving a new debit card so I pressed 1 but got another computer voice. I then hung up in case it was a scam. Esp. since I don't believe the new card is supposed to be MasterCard based. Then I tried to dial the number back and it wouldn't work. Thankfully I found this forum. I appreciate all that wrote in, thx!

Got the call from (736) 386-99 just now on my cell phone, realizing that is was most likely bogus/scam due to the missing digits, I answered anyway to give them a piece of my mind... message stated that my US Bank card was locked (although I do not have such a card) and prompted me to dial 1, which went to dead air...

I just received a call from 736-386-99. Like the others, stating my debit card was unlocked. However, I was told my US Bank debit card was locked. Looks like they are saying random banks judging by this site.
After I hung up and confirmed with my actual bank that my accounts weren't locked and fraudulent activity did not take place, I warned my family.
Advise your family and friends to be skeptical when it comes to calls/emails/texts, and do not succumb to 'their' intended fear. It makes me sick that people sit behind a computer and steal from others. Being skeptical and aware is your only defense, because NOTHING is being done about the hacking and scams taking place EVERYDAY.
