Like a wolf in a banker’s coat, the calls from 800‑421‑2110 pretend to be Bank of America representatives. Victims report claims of credit‑limit increases, fraud‑department alerts, and requests for Social Security or card numbers. The pattern shows a classic phishing scam: callers use familiar branding and occasionally correct personal details to gain trust. Never share personal information or financial details unless you have initiated the call and verified the number on an official statement. Hang up immediately, block the number, and add it to your Do‑Not‑Call registry. Report the incident to the FTC and to your actual bank’s fraud line for a record.
As mention by another user, this number is the one to call for my Bank of America credit card, i also have another card with diffrent number
A call was received from someone claiming to represent Bank of America, stating that they needed to speak with me. However, Bank of America has never contacted me before, and they didn't have my information, which raises suspicions about the authenticity of the call.
A suspicious letter arrived, expressing gratitude for using my Bank of America credit card, and included a gift card with no balance, which led me to verify its legitimacy, revealing a potential scam designed to steal personal information.
Apparently, scammers are using a number similar to one used by Bank of America for credit report inquiries. The legitimate number for Bank of America is 800-421-2110, but it's been challenging to get a response.
Similar experiance happend to me via FICO, I contacted my bank immediatly and they didnt have any records of issues, so I called FICO and equifax and they both agreed it sounded like a scam... my credit score actualy increassed so I'm not shure whos responisble, the number on my alert was suppost to be from Delware, definatly a SCAM!!
After verifying with Bank of America directly using a number obtained from their official website, I confirmed that 1-800-421-2110 is indeed a valid customer service number, which I had initially obtained from a credit reporting agency.
I've taken similar actions and am now preparing to get identity theft protection, hoping it will be effective.
This is actually Bank of America's number, so dont worry about it, the person who posted befor me doesnt no what he's talking about

After calling bank of america, they confimed that this is a legit account, its used for settlement payments and credit reporting, I've made payments and verifed it with my credit report, seems legit to me
A scam was attempted via email, claiming to be from Bank of America, but the request to call a specific number and provide sensitive information was a clear giveaway.
When returning the call to the provided number, I was immediately prompted to enter my card number to resolve an issue, similar to previous experiences, despite having an outstanding balance.
Similar unsolicited calls have been received, claiming a new rate is available for my card, which is unnecessary as I do not carry a balance
Given the potential for Caller ID to be spoofed, it's worth noting that:
The phone number in question is 800-421-2110.
My credit monitoring service notified me of suspicious activity, someone had reported my credit card as stolen or lost to BofA, but I know I didnt make such a report, since I only have a few cards and they are all in use, so its obvious somone is trying to be sneeky and I wont tollerate it.

I recieved a suspisious letter today stating they had been trying to contact me regarding my inquiry, and requested I call 800-421-2110, which is a automated voice asking for my credit card or social secutiy number.
