Here my story that face in a great 11/11/11 day.
Received call from 0376268899 from Hong Leong bank clam that I have 3 month didn't paid my credit card bill about RM7086.
I strongly argue with she since that I didn't have any credit card belong to Hong Leong bank and the staff told me the credit card number 5142 1932 4450 5899 and it is a gold master card.
My name and IC number was correct and my address is not correct.
And she tell me that did you swap at Johor City Square for RM7086 amount? Just told her I didn't have any credit card with Hong Leong bank and how do I swipe it? Then she quiet for few second.
Finally she block my card and I say I will contact to Bank Negara on this issue.
What did she do is she can direct convert me to Bank Negara Helpline, I am stock at the time since when this Hong Leong bank become more efficient?
Few seconds later, one man answer my phone ask my name and my phone number, told me that he need to check from the system and he will call bank and do not switch off the phone!
After hangup the call, quickly I call my friend to find out what is the phone number of Hong Leong bank customer service center, what I am get from my friend the number was 0376268899, I told my friend to double check it and my friend was say yes! That the Hong Leong bank customer service number!!!!
I use my phone call the 0376268899 and I give the credit card number to the staff and she said this card was not in the system. And the staff told me maybe it is a scam.
Hangup the call and received 4 miss call from 0326988044
Later go to report police.

Who I want to believe?
What they want from me?

^ thanks for the detailed information.

If you refer to the first post E.1, the modus operandi is the same.

They can now make phone calls and it will appear as though the number is legit (in this case HLB number). This matter is getting rampant day by day.

I am sure their next step was to ask you to transfer your money to their 'safe' account.

Don't think I will fall in their trap since don't have the credit card account with them.
But will be more curious next time when received their call nod.gif

Bro, I already posted it at 1st page before you even posted above.

But sometimes I wonder what is the point of me updating the 1st post when Seniors fellow credit card users like you don't even read it or read other poeple's post here.

The case is about the same, but most critical part is they use the phone number that same with the HLB Customer care line, thats why need to highlight for it.

Just received this call from 0376267000.
yesterday received missed called from 0376266800 i think from same person.

claimed selling card protection service for my maybank 2 cards.

This is the 2nd time receive this kind of call. first one is regarding travel agency thing. i hate it so much. anyway, that guy explains they provide protection if my card lost just for rm118/year. he said maybank paid them to do this.

he explains so many things until he asked me to copy 2 numbers and later i will see the transaction is billed under my card. immediately i said sorry im not interested. then he said why ? why? i said i just dont want. he asked again why? i said sorry i dont want.

he hangs up.

I received alot of this call from other bank, promote this and thats.
It is marking strategy and they will expose your personal particulars to 3nd party such as sales team to promote their insurance product.
