Scamming - Fraud
Bank of America or BoA customers do not call or text 800-421-2110. This is because the text or email message below, which appears as if it was sent by the Bank of America asking the recipients to call 800-421-2110, visit a website, or respond to it, is a phishing scam. The phishing scam is being sent by scammers or cybercriminals to trick their potential victims into disclosing their Bank of America's account credentials, or their banking, personal and financial information.
Remember, once scammers or cybercrimes have gotten their potential victims' Bank of America information, they will use it to steal their money and use their accounts to commit fraud. Therefore, if you have received messages appearing as if they came from the Bank of America, asking you to call a number or respond to them with your personal or financial information, please do not follow the instructions in the messages and report them to the Bank of America.

this is a scam they lier and take money out of your account call boa directly on the number on the back of your card
Got an email:"It looks like multiple online payments, in the same amount, have been made on this account recently. Please call us at 800.421.2110 if this needs to be corrected. If multiple payments were made intentionally, or if this issue has already been resolved, there is nothing that needs to be done."Got on the website, not through a link, and nothing shows multiple payments. 2nd time I got this email. No messages or anything on my account when I log in. Not going to call. Does show the last 4 digits of my card # on the email, which is cause for concern.
1 800 421 2100 called 3 times this morning. 1st time I did not answer, he hung up as soon as the ans mach came on. He called right back. I told them I do not do business with B of A. He said someone in Florida applied for a credit card using my information. Did I apply for a credit card, did I give someone authorization to apply for a credit card. I said NO NO NO NO. I have a credit lock and you can't do that. He said they do not approve credit cards for CA residents. I hung up. He called right back. I told him to stop calling me. He said why are you being so rude, I am trying to help you. I hung up.
I got an email from this number today, telling me I have made multiple payments in one day for the same amount. Want me to call the number!
I have been getting persistent phone calls from 1-800-421-2110 telling me someone applied for a BofA credit card in my name in Texas. I called my bank and they said I have no apps in Texas. This person, named Alexander, keeps calling me so I blocked the number.
Definitely a scam. If you call 800-421-2110, Bank of America will answer. If you receive a call from 800-421-2100, however, it's probably not Bank of America. Scammers are hijacking that number to make it look like your being called by Bank of America, when in reality you're not.
