I feel distraught, paranoid and like the biggest idiot in the world for how this happened. I have a capital one account and received a call from a "representative in the fraud department". She goes in great detail about how someone was using my card and wanted to confirm charges. She gained access to my account by confirming details and would put me on hold back and forth, come to find out she was going back and forth with capital one and handing over the info to them. After the call, I get an email saying money was transferred to my checking and an amount of $1000 was withdrawn in $20 increments. I just returned home from a trip and I am out of it. I'm not sure but I might have told this person my ss number. Do I change my ss number? I called my 2 financial institutions, started a claim, changed all passwords and called credit card companies to request new cards. I feel like shit after this and violated. If anyone ever calls you from your financial institution hang up and call the main number on their website.
