It looks like a scam to get you to panic and click on their link so they call sell you something.
Reply:Call the 800 number and tell them to cancel your account permanently. Tell them that you don't authorize any charges.





If they give you any argument (they probably won't) report them to your state attorney general's office department of consumer affairs.





If a charge does show up on your credit card, contact the card company in writing and tell them it's fraudulent. They'll charge it back.
