Scam

Called and I answered. Told me that had to confirm a payment made in the last 20 minutes that they deemed suspicious and possibly fraudulent. I checked and hadn't attempted to make any payments.

I asked them to confirm how I know they were from the bank and they said they could put me through to the security department. I said this sounds like a scam and they hung up. Lots of bank ground noise and sounded like they were in a call center.
