I have been getting calls on my cell phone for the last week from someone who identifies them self as being with Wells Fargo and wanting to talk to me about changes in the way the check card works. this seemed odd as I have email alerts activated for my account. I finally called the bank to check it out. they are NOT conducting any such campaign. I gave them the phone number (area code 402) they checked it and it is NOT associated with Wells Fargo at all!

There's a similar phone scam going on for businesses with credit card machines - someone calls claiming to be with the credit card processing company and wants you to input changes into your machine - which in reality hijack your credit card calls via a new carrier to a new processing company.
