I was tricked by a phone-phisher pretending to be from my bank, and he convinced me to hand over my credit-card number, then did $8,000+ worth of fraud with it before I figured out what happened.

    My bank has called me a few times. Each time they ask about specific transactions, so it’s mostly yes/no answers. (Occasionally I’ve asked for additional clarifying info, but they never asked about card numbers or the like.) Usually it’s been abnormal transactions that i know about, but a few times it was a cloned card number being used elsewhere, (before chip became standard) and then I had the card shut down.
