User reviews for 908-280-8858

""Thanks for Amazon order of ... on your Visa card. If valid hang up, otherwise call the number."" Definitely a scam. no order was placed, no charges were on my card. Just Phishing for info.

BS a an Amazon order. Scam.

""Thanks for Amazon order of ... on your Visa card. If valid hang up, otherwise call the number."" Searched number instead and found same as earlier scam report.

Thanks for Amazon order of ... on your Visa card. If valid hang up, otherwise call the number. Needless to say, no order had been placed and no phone call made back to the number.

No call, but I got an email with ""Norton"" at the top of the body of the email, thanking me for my order and saying I paid $279.89 to Symantech (note the mispelling) Retail Sales, which will appear on my statement as SBA and I have 24 hours to dispute by calling this number: 1-(908) 280-8858. Total scam.

A man with a strong accent called from this id saying he was from Amazon and that there was a suspicious purchase on my Amazon account for $149.99. When i asked what it was for they said 2 speakers which i had not ordered. He tried to get my credit card number, so i asked which one. Then he said it was a debit card that started with 45 (which mine doesn't). I asked for him to send a letter describing the fraud so i could take it up with the issuing bank. Then he asked if he could talk to me - ""i want to f*** you"". I told him good luck and hung up. Clearly they were phishing for a credit card number. Usually i don't respond to these, but i actually had just ordered something from Amazon (although not that amount) and was concerned.

The number 9082808858 phoned me 2 times this morning. When I answered the phone, they hung up. I tried to call back and find out what they wanted but the number wasn't recognised. They didn't leave any phone message. Maybe it's a telemarketer
