FWIW story: I recently received a call from the real VISA
fraud department. The way they work is to ask you to confirm
or deny a group of charges against your card. That's all.
You get a list of date, charge source and amount. At the end you
press a phone button to indicate whether or not you made the
charges. They don't ask for any identifing information.
I don't know what happens if you press 0 to speak with a real
person or if you indicate that one or more of the charges are
false.
