I was tricked by a phone-phisher pretending to be from my bank, and he convinced me to hand over my credit-card number, then did $8,000+ worth of fraud with it before I figured out what happened.

    My rule of thumb is to never give away any information, always call back. And I don’t have credit cards, never have, whenever I need I just use virtual disposable CCs from my banking system.

      Anything that requires any personal info from me needs to come in the form of a physical letter. I do not give out anyone over the phone. Emails are not legally binding.
