FIA CARD SERVICES -- a scam???
Date: Tue, 06/19/2012 - 10:52
I received two calls at home late last week from an FIA CARD SERVICES representative.
The first was a Thursday voicemail from 1-888-615-7168 claiming to be making a "servicing request" on behalf of the Bank of America (BOA???). I answered the second call on Friday from the same number. The representative gave no explanation of why he was calling but instead asked immediately for my mother's maiden name, my social security number, and my date of birth.
I refused because I had already called the BOA fraud center the previous day. BOA had no record of this number but really didn't seem very interested.
No wonder the American banking system is such a mess, and fraud is rampant! At the very least, FIA CARD SERVICES uses very poor judgment in robocalling and trying to initiate conversation!!!

You posted this same question yesterday and received an answer already.
FIA is the collection department for Bank of America and/or MBNA. They are not a scam.
