Type of a scam Phishing

I received a letter in the mail that stated it was from Capital One and it is dated August 28th, 2018. It was informing me that my account is closed and that my card is no longer active. It also states that if I didn't request my account to be closed that I will receive another letter in the mail explaining why my account is being closed. I used the chat feature on the Capital One website last night and I was told that my account is not closed and my card is still active and that there is nothing wrong with my account. The representative I corresponded with said that Capital One didn't send me any letters at all specially one about my account being closed and that I received suspicious fraudulent mail. It is illegal for anyone to impersonate another person or company for any reason. I just wanted to make people aware that someone out there is impersonating Capital One and sending out fraudulent letters to their customers and if you have any questions to please call your Capital One Customer Service Line first to get the information you need.

Type of a scam Phishing

I received an email that said Capital One. It said I was approved for a loan. They wanted my account and routing number, but the kicker was when they told me to call my bank and get my online bank User ID and password but don't tell my bank Capital One wans to deposit money in the bank!!! A BIG RED FLAG!!! It looks legit but looks are deceiving.

Be fore warned, if in doubt, contact the BBB.

Type of a scam Credit Cards

I received an email about updating my information with Capital One on my credit card. Stupidly, I updated everything, including giving my SS#! I KNOW better! Not until I thought about always hearing that these companies would never ask for your personal info on line did I go back and see typos in the email. And then, when I looked at the email address, it doesn't even relate to Capital One.

Type of a scam Credit Cards

I was contacted several times by 2 800 numbers stating they were trying to lower my interest rate on my credit card. Somehow they Knew it was Capital One that I have and used that information to try and get my card number.

They said that my rate was 24% was I aware of it? I said no, they asked me for my expiration date, I gave it to them,

then they said grab your card to verify your account. I didn't do it. that was from the number 1-800-847-2911.

Subsequently another number 1-800-903-3637 called and identified themselves as capital one and did I want to lower my rate. I have a call app on my phone which usually alerts me of possible scams, but it actually identified the number as Capital One, so I gave more info to that number. I never gave my cc number though and they keep calling. I called Capital one myself and notified them about what was happening and they did not initiate any calls to me. A scammer is out there trying very effectively and slyly to get folks numbers. I have reported it to the credit card company, you and my local police department. Go get them, before they scam some old folks.

Thanks, Lori Liskovec

The scammer sent out a letter indicating a problem with our credit card account. Said we could resolve it by contacting their 1-877 phone number and giving them our account number, name, address, social security number, date of birth, and the "case ID" that appears at the top of the letter.

Type of a scam Phishing

I initially received an email saying that suspicious activity had been detected related to my Capital One online credentials. The letter stated I should change my password but also offered complimentary credit monitoring at www.transunionmonitoring.com (first suspect detail). The email looked incredibly authentic, but came from [email protected] (second suspect detail). I went to the monitoring website to check it out and the first thing it asked was for my SSN (third suspect detail). I wrote it off as a scam and that was that. Then, about a month and a half later, I got a letter in the mail at my home address that was almost identical to the email. It used my legal name and detailed the same fraud suspicion. I thought it may be real so called the Capital One fraud department (from the number on their website, not on the letter) and they let me know I had not been sent anything. The letter is extremely convincing and looks very real. My husband also got the email and letter, so the scammer clearly has a list of Capital One customers.

Type of a scam Credit Cards

I answered the call and someone who I could barely understand. He told me he was with Capital One and I was pre-approved for lower credit card interest rates. He went on to give me details of MY credit accounts however, I do not have a Capital One Credit Card at all. He asked me for my credit card expiration. I put him on hold and attempted to call the BBB on the other line. BBB could not take calls at that time so, I hung up on him. He then proceeded to call me back on multiple different numbers- 4 times. I answered again on the last number. It was the same person and said we lost connection. I said no I hung up as I am not interested and I need to check your accreditation before doing anything. He then went to say he understood but then said he was not asking for my personal information. I told him yes you are and I do not have credit cards regardless therefore, you can stop calling me. I do have credit cards but I didn't feel this was his right to know. Can you please look into the numbers I provided as I feel this could be a terrible scam. Thank you.

Type of a scam Identity Theft

I received a letter from "capital one" stating that a credit card account may have been opened fraudulently using some of my personal information and I may be a victim of identity theft. The letter asked me to call 800-239-7054 to talk with a customer fraud protection team. I had just opened a new account with Capital One and felt they would have called or emailed me with this concern. I called Capital One and they told me there is no such issue with my account and suggested I filed a report with the BBB and contact my local authorities.

Type of a scam Phishing

"Ashley," phoned 2/16/2017, claiming to be in the fraud department of Capital One, asked me to confirm my name, which I did NOT, and asked if I had written a check against my Capital One account for $3,000. I again didn't confirm my name but told her I'd never had a Capital One account. I hung up.

She called back and I answered without realizing it was she again. She said she would make sure the $3,000 check was not honored and would send me a new Capital One credit card and some checks.

I told her not to do that, and reiterated that I was not a Capital One customer and never had been.

I hung up again.

Type of a scam Phishing

This is a phishing scam, apparently run by someone pretending to be Capital One, in an attempt to gain access to your account and clear out your funds. However, closer inspection reveals that Capitol One is actually involved themselves in this scam, and that the CEO himself has personally commissioned the scammer. Mr. Fairbanks ends up with most of the proceeds and gets plausible deniability because the actual scamming is done by someone who is officially not a part of the company.

How do I know this? Well, I reported the scam to [email protected], the address which their website says to send scam reports to. Of course, the mail was bounced back. Why? Because they really don't want to know about scams. Why not? Because they commissioned it. If they know about it, they're legally required to stop it. If they stop it, they stop making money from it. Need more proof?

I called the customer service phone number. There was no fraud department to reach. The rep I spoke to was very nonchalant after being informed about the scam. He didn't care. He refused to do anything about it, or transfer me or report it to anyone who could. That's when I realised, conclusively, that Capital One was actually behind it.

But, I didn't stop there. I contacted the CEO just to inform him what was going on. THAT Email bounced back, but not because his address was invalid. Because his address was flagged for having a poor reputation. That's right. The internet's inherent security measures prevented me from reaching the CEO of Capital One lest I might be scammed. And, there ya have it. Capital One literally commissions phishing scams that spoof their own company.

Now, fortunately I don't even have a Capital One account to clean out, and even if I did, I'm smart enough to see a phishing scam from a mile away, so I didn't lose any money. But people who hold CO accounts are probably not so smart and will likely lose all their money if targeted by this scam. And, of course, because CO is in on the scam, they won't make any effort to resolve it.
