Don't answer scam on credit card charge for you to approve purchase
Automated call saying a transaction was being taken from my checking account, for $299. If I wanted to cancel the transaction, to call this number. I decided not to call, and I will look at my bank transaction and see if anything is taken out. If so I'll alert the bank and get my money back.

I could barely understand the young man. Ask him to repeat what he was saying; I still could not clearly understand him. He kept saying something was expiring relating to a ""Computer"".
Got a call this morning. I was at work so didn't answer. I don't call back unknown numbers, which I think is good behaviour because of possible unwanted costs. Some time ago I had call from similar number
