Whew! Crisis avoided. Try sticking to the facts and reality. It's very unlikely that you're going to get an urgent warning from a car warranty company. Never heard of it happening. However CC companies do call their card holders occasionally because they've detected unusual activity on their accounts. So, ignoring a call that says "This is Chase calling with an important message regarding your VISA account", when you know that you have their VISA card is a really dumb idea. As others have pointed out, if you don't want to accept the call, their number is on the back of the card. It's also on the last paper billing statement, available when you log in online, or from doing a google search. Good grief. |
