missed call

I called to find out who they were and the man who answered was very rude. He laughed at me and hung up. He wouldn't tell me the name of the company.

I rec'd a voicemail asking me to call this number.  I could hardly understand what the guy was saying because he had a thick Middle-Eastern accent.  I called and the same guy answered the phone and he said he was from some "bank"...probably trying to extort $$$ from me, so I laughed and hung up on him.

I also could not understand what the guy was saying on my voice mail. He had a very thick accent.  I called them back and the same guy answered. He said he was from some bank, didn't understand, and proceeded to tell me- 'for security purposes to make sure he was speaking to the correct person' he wanted my 'name, account number and SS#.'
I hung up on him.

Got a phishing email purportedly from HSBC to call the number.  Be careful and don't fall for it!!

got 2 messages on the answering machine from "hsbc" fraud prevention asking me to call them back at this number. i thought it was bogus so i called the number on the back of my atm card and reported it. the next day, i had an email with my full name spelled out asking me to call the same number, so i again called the number on the back of my atm card. i eventually spoke to someone in the fraud prevention department that confirmed there was a hold on my internet banking account due to suspicious activity (i logged in from my work and home computers in the same day, which must have thrown a flag).

tldr; there's a good chance this is legit, but take care of it by calling the number on the back of your atm card to be sure.

This is definitely HSBC Bank's online fraud number.  I got the email, came here, then wasn't convinced enough so I called the number on the back of my card and they told me the number without my even having to tell it to them.

I then called the number, cleared up what they wanted cleared up, and told them that they should do something about their email (I got an email not a phone call).  The sender was @hsbc.asia but the sent from line read HSBC.co.in and the body of the email said that it was on behalf of HSBC US.  That's just silly.  There is no easy way to verify the number.
