Got a call from a 1-800 number claiming to be the Fraud Investigation Department of CIBC (Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce) and wanted my credit card number (I do have a CIBC card) and expiry date. I played along and gave the scammer a fake number and expiry date. He put me on hold for a few minutes, came back and asked me to double check the number. I then read out the 3 digit number on the back of the non-existent card in front of me.. He put me on hold again for a few minutes and then came back and said everything was fine with my card.
I did not expose myself to any risk, did I, by playing along?
