When I initially answered the call and their robot explained this, my first thoughts were that it probably wasn&#8217;t fraudulent activity, and that I&#8217;d have to confirm a <a href='http://misc.vinceh.com/2010/09/have-barclaycard-fallen-victim-to-social-engineering/'>[...]</a>]]></description>
