2 weeks ago.. i got a call .. from my own phone number!!! I am an ATT customer. on a shared account with others. (6 active phones .. work related).
when i answered ..
i hear the ATT .. quick tune.. then an automated female voice said..
my account has been put on hold due to odd activity.
enter my zip code to verify. I entered the zip of the account.
then i thought this is too odd... and hung up.
I then called the account holder to verify issue..
he said there is NO odd activities... and phones work.
so ignore it for now. .. hung up.
15 mins later..
i got a call from the account holders number....
answered it.. and it was the ATT .. quick tune .. and same automated number!!!!
hung up...
so.. it must be a scam.. because the phones are just fine 2 weeks later.
i have gotten that call 2 more times during this time.
what worries me most..
is that it was able to call me with the account holder's number (call ID).
scared it was able to see who i called after the initial call???
or did it know who the main holder number and used it.
no one else in the group got this scam call.
is my PHONE... hacked? something looking and recording my calls?
