This is a Valid Company that is a 3rd party to Banks across the Country that detects Fradulant Charges on Credit/Debt Cards. They do work hand in hand with Banks They were very helpful when I called them and told me somethings that would happen and I verified this info with my Bank and they confirmed .

It's legit. I called my bank first, but these guys just make sure that it's you using your debit card and not someone else. Only information I had to give was my phone number and verify my name. They went over a couple transactions and made sure I was the one who made them. 3 minute phone call, tops.

Received a call this morning. Called the 800 number back and questioned them. They had found fraudulent activity on my account from the UK and were checking it out. I knew they were ligit as they had all my information on my account. They knew all current charges, and read them off to me to verify.

Suspicious automated calls left on my voice mail with unknown problems with transactions on credit card was the message howeverno written notification from my bank to verify any problems. I spoke withSandy from Falcon about transactions that I did not make even some in the UK...she blocked my card asking me to call my bank for details. The good news... none of the suspicious transactions were approved.

This number left a voicemail on my business phone at 8:30pm on a Sunday night. I was very suspicious of it as well, as it was not the number for my credit union. I called my credit union first and they assured me it was legitimate and that they would not ask for any personal or confidential account information. They were right. They only asked for the phone number they left the message on and they read off my last five debit transactions and their amounts for me to verify. Agree with the previous poster though, always verify first with your bank.

This number also called me both on my cell and at work. The company is called FRIS (Fraud Risk Identification Service). I called my credit union, and scrutinized every last detail of who these people were and that they were ok to give even basic info to. after a lengthy conversation with my bank, i determined that they were ok to call. All they wanted was to verify several large debit card transactions that I placed earlier in the day.No matter what, call your bank to find out before giving info to people like these.

I received a call from 1-800-622-1361. This is a legitimate credit card monitoring company employed by my credit union. - When I checked with the credit union they confirmed that the company 'Falcon' handles ATM and Debit cards and monitors transactions for the credit union. When I called Falcon back they asked for the number on which they left the message and my name. They did not request any other account or personal info. They then confirmed some recent transactions on my card. The call was quick, easy and low risk.

FRUSTRATED TO GET A CALL ON A SUNDAY MORNING AND NOT HAVE A SINGLE NUMBER FOR MY BANK THAT WILL ANSWER TO VERIFY INFORMATION. NOT EVEN THE MC NUMBER WOULD HELP ME. I AM CONSIDERING CLAY POTS TO KEEP MY MONEY IN UNDERGROUND. UNTIL THEN I HOPE SOMEONE I AM PAYING TO HANDLE MY CASH, HAS MY BACK...

This is a legit 3rd party transaction verification company. They do not ask you account#'s or passwords, just to verify the phone number they called, the name of the person they left the message for and the last 5 transactions that were made. You just answer yes or no.

Same thing happen as with the two above. I called my bank and they verified that this 'Transaction Review Department' for my bank (which is an outside organization) is safe to talk to.BUT, always call your bank first to verify.

I was traveling and made purchases in multiple cities across the world within a 2 day period. They were legit, (they stated that they were calling for fraud prevention on behalf of my credit union). They asked my name and phone number, which #1 they already had because they called me, and the automated message that was left included my name, so I went ahead and spoke with them. They then went over the transactions with me again I didn't GIVE ANY information I simply verified by answering their questions yes/no style. *They were courteous and professional.If anyone ever calls you about financial information and you aren't 100% sure that they are who they claim to be then just call your local bank and speak to them first. There is nothing that your local or national cust. service can't do when it comes to the fraud stuff.

Better no access to your money for two short days than no access because someone cleaned out your bank account. Sometimes travel will trigger it them to stop your card. It's annoying especially when you are on vacation, however, their is a solution. Just use your card at an ATM and put in your number. That sometimes removes the precaution. Other times, yes, you have to call and have it removed. This is a legit number.

If you get a call from this number,, ANSWER IT..., or CALL THEM BACK QUICKMy wife got this call, what it turned out to be is a company that monitors odd transactions with your debit card.Well, my wife had 785.28 worth of deductions from her checking account that weren't from her.All were out of the country purchases so it was very clear the problem existed.we have to go to the bank on Tuesday (tomorrow they are closed for Columbus day)We're told we'll get it all back. Whew

Alarmed regarding an unknown agency calling me 'on behalf of' my credit union, I was instantly motivated to call my financial institution to verify the authenticity of such an event. After several minutes of investigating this with my financial provider's representative, they read off to me the appropriate numbers they have on file that IS authorized. The company, as stated above, is referred to as 'Transaction Review Dept.' I asked them several questions regarding their purpose and frequency regarding monitoring transactions and they replied, 'they are used by several organizations and the amount of times this might occur is dependant on the organization you are a member of and to call them for furthur details...' They were very professional and did not lead me to believe that this was a hoax. The only thing(s) they asked me to verify were the phone number in which they left a message on, my name, and a few recent transactions I had made that day on my account. In my particular case, these transactions were small amounts of less than $50. The conversation came to a friendly close. I agree with the above remarks: 'ALWAYS verify with your financial institution FIRST!' Hope this helps.

Woman caller left a message on machine said from the transaction review department of 'local bank' debit card leaving another 800 number to call.

I have a less than happy story. My husband called to say that his debit card was not working. I checked our balance to see if anything odd had happened. No, there was a healthy balance, but it was early aft. on Sat. so I couldn't call the credit union. A little later I realized the answering machine was flashing and one of the messages (from the day before) was from the transaction review dept. I called them back and they said they had deactivated our cards-- the girl had no other info. but to say report had gone to my local bank-- call them. So we are left with no access to our accounts all weekend. There were no odd or large transactions the whole of last week other than one charge my husband made on a business trip in Miami- we live in VT. He travels alot so this is not unusual. I am not a happy camper.

dept card scam, claimed to be calling for 'local bank'

I've received calls from this company more than once. If there is ANY strange activity on my account, or in a strange area, they call to verify! I'm thankful my credit union uses this service and makes sure no one is stealing from me!! They've NEVER asked for account info....but for those of you who 'can't get ahold of your bank first'.....just call the number back. If they ask for your account info or anything else personal DON'T GIVE IT TO THEM!! You are allowed to say NO!

Yes, I too was worried if this was an actual REAL call and it is --after checking this out with my bank I called and as others say it is a 3 minutes top call. I had several small transactions that flagged it as a possible set up for a larger huge draw on me from another ----but lucky for me I was all of the small draws as I never seem to carry cash anymore just my card.......however I do have a friend who did get their account HIT (money taken) and that was how it was done---when the friend did not notice the small draws then the out of country thief raised the amounts until the bank account was cleaned out. Very glad these guys 800-622-1361 are out there watching this activity for us all.
