I just got a bill for a Wayfair credit card that was issued by Citi bank that I did not apply for. I never even shopped on that website.
I tried contacting both Citi bank and Wayfair, but since I don’t have the full account number, I couldn’t get past Citi’s automated phone menu.
Wayfair’s phone system was a fucking nightmare getting transferred to various departments, but eventually transferred me to a foreign call center where they insisted that they needed my social security number and birth date to file a report, but I’m not giving them that.
The best thing is that the scammer managed to get a higher credit limit than I was able to get on my own card.
There is a randomly generated password you get when you freeze it. DONT LOSE IT!! Its a removed to recover if you do. One of them gives you a list of like 25 different ones you can use (you just type one of the 25 from the list)
Fascinating. After tens of thousands of years, the financial system discovers passwords.
